Wait, I Thought Religion In Government/Politics Was Bad?

Isn’t that what those on the Left keep saying? Haven’t they disparaged and smeared George W. Bush for most of his 2 terms, as well as Republicans overall for even longer, over their links to religion and religious leaders? Obama was reported to be planning meetings with religious leaders Tuesday afternoon

A spokesperson said the meeting of some 30 people will include leaders from several denominations including Evangelical, Catholic and Protestant members of the faith community. Among those taking part are Bishop Phillip Cousin, the Rev. Stephen Thurston and Dr. T. Dewitt Smith.

“Reaching out to the faith community is a priority for Barack Obama and will be a priority under an Obama Administration. This is one of several meetings he will have over the coming months with religious leaders,” Jen Psaki told reporters on the campaign plane.

Can we start calling him and his supporters “fundies” yet?

Talk Leftbreaks down how the meetings went. Of course, based on Obama’s 20 years at Trinity, we can guess what his religious viewpoint is.
