Bush Campaign Seeks Help From Thousands of Congregations

This alone would be reason enough to vote against Bush this fall. The man is bound and determined to make sure we're a "Christian republic" - from his divisive stance on same-sex marriages to his faith-based charities program. The man is a religious nutcase - a "loony fundie". Even his Middle East policies are driven by his religious imperatives. This is dangerous, to say the least. And frankly, I wouldn't care if the Democrats were offering up Mickey Mouse and Bozo the Clown on their Presidential ticket - they'd still get my vote this year, for this reason alone.

The Bush campaign's effort is the latest indication of its heavy bet on churchgoers in its bid for re-election.
