Bush's Crusade
The Boston Globe is running an excellent series on the disturbing impact of Bush's "faith-based initiatives."

Key findings:
* Your tax dollars -- and lots of them -- are going to spread Christianity throughout the world
* Secular groups like CARE are being demonized and defunded, as are programs to distribute condoms to prevent AIDS

Highlights from the first two articles here.

Hey, the liberal light is always on at the Vast Left-Wing Conspiracy. Please stop by and say "hi!"

4. Think
Think of all the little boys they'll have access to all over the world.
They can groom many, many of them for future use.

8. Thanks again........
What's wrong with DU - why aren't they reading this?

Maybe you should post again (from the beginning) in the Religion group? Just to generate some dialogue, interest......
