"Why, by the way, are you supporting a religious test for public office, Rig?"
I'm not, really. I've said all along, though, that I thought religion was going to decide the outcome of this thing, and not race. At the time I was thinking that ethe horrible swiftboaters were going to pain Obama as a Muslim in the general election. It didn't occurr to me that other Democrats would try to paint him as a buffoon in the primary.
Frankly, I think the world would be a much better place if people would just recognize religion for what it is, in which case, I think it would simply go away.
Some of the things that Wright said go way outside of what is normally considered religious context, however.
