"What's everyone so upset about? It's still early in the campaign, and as you can see by a few of his earlier promises Barrack is learning the fine art of the flip-flop just fine. He has plenty of time to change his mind. Heck ,I heard he is getting private tutoring from John Kerry, so don't worry.

I'd rather spend the money on church groups than uncaring government bureaucrats. Church groups spend less money on office decoration ~ have you seen those basements?

12 steps is a "faith based" program. I'm sure Cubby has heard of them.

Let people go ahead and myopically google Jefferson. Ask his descendants whom they are voting for.

I hate faith more than anyone I know, but I would do the same thing.

Obama can score a few points with young evangelicals, help people who genuinely need it, and reform the program Bush started; all for the price of making funds available to faith-based charities, funds that were already available to secular charities.

I personally don't agree with the beliefs of "The Salvation Army", but they do more for the homeless in my area than anyone. I don't see how giving them an equal opportunity for federal funds would violate the seperation of church and state.

obama is EXACTLY like every politician that has come before him…he is an asshole, albeit a very bright one. he will pander, anytime, anywhere, to anyone, to get what he wants. and he wants to be the decider.

WOW!! Those John Wayne types over at Dame Huffington's place are throwing an absolute hissy fit. They're all googling Thomas Jefferson quotes to show how Obama is betraying the Founding Fathers.

Do you think he disagrees with Jefferson on wheather or not the federal government can abolish slavery?

NAH! They would simply die if they heard that.

Amen Paulie, a "change we can predict!"

Anything but public campaign finance, I guess!

What Obama evidently wants is federally funded, federally monitored religion. That's not separation of church and state. It's closer to a power play on the part of the state to get deeper into the religion business. Scary, I know, but if they feed it to us in small enough bites, we'll swallow it.
