The "faith based" stuff, Ron Davies, is nothing short of missappropriation of public funds. The Bush Administration is happily giving money to those organizations who support him politically, and withholding it from those who do not. The money would be better spent if it stayed in public hands, and was doled out base on real needs.

             As far as Carter and Clinton, I liked both of them, and you're right, Jimmy Carter went to extremes to keep his personal beliefs out of public policy. Johnson, on the other hand, was too much of a product of southern politics to play a straight game, it always seemed to me.
