religious america may find mccain repugnant
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2008/08/15/pastor-from-jenna-bushs-w_n_119187.html

i am just a good old country boy at heart
there isn't anything wrong with that
i was raised on farms and ran cattle since i could jump on my grandfathers mule
i have walked gleefully in the woods and across the mountains
i have tasted possum and raccoon
deer and wild game birds
on sundays we would go to church
its what most of america does
mountain hard gospel baptist church is where we went
where we were instructed in what was right and what was wrong
only in our rationalizations do grey areas exist
under the steeple on a hot sunday morning everything is good or evil
the way you are expected to treat your animals
the way you are expected to treat your neighbors
the way you are expected to treat your parents
the way you are expected to treat your children
the way you are expected to treat your wife
the way you are expected to treat yourself
the way you are expected to treat your God
stepping outside those boundaries is noticed
when god fearing america sees you as a disrespectful of your own wife
they do not come out for you

the article linked is quoting a close family friend and the pastor who performed the wedding of bush's daughter jenna
a close family friend of the bush's
doesnt sound to me like he would vote for mccain for dogcatcher right now though
