You're so right. W was talking about how he got the federal purse opened to faith-based groups. They were applauding the money, not his faith.
Contrast that with the wild cheers that would have resounded had Beezelbubba been there breaking commandments right in their midst from that instruction manual W held up. Billdo would lie like he always does about church burnings when he was growing up, and they'd applaud the lie. He'd bear false witness against Republicans by saying how they practice the politics of personal destruction and racial division, and the amens would come down from the rafters. And, of course, he'd be scanning for a hunka hunka burnin' love in the choir and they'd cackle and nudge each other when he would invite his target to sing next to him, arm draped over her shoulder.
