The highly-publicized visit to Bob Jones University didn't tip you off? You have to watch the news, not the campaign ads.

Default Look, as far as I can see

...all of the republicans speak at Bob Jones. The guy pimped himself as a Methodist for cripes sake. His Dad's an Episcopalian (not many fundies there), and his brother is a Catholic. Looked to me like they were cynically covering all the "bases". I expected abortion rights to be assailed, I didn't expect that he'd twist his hero Reagan's words "Tear down that wall" to fit church/state separation!

Though come to think of it, his father did once say that atheists shouldn't be "considered citizens, nor should they be considered patriots, this is one nation under god."

We've gotta boot this family.

I know, that's why I'm paying more attention now. Even though I was in that neck of the woods at the time (well about 3 hours away), I didn't really think much about it. Candidates often speak at schools, and I wasn't following the particulars of his every move. It's harder to avoid what he does now as President.
