He speaks the the truth essentially but it is somewhat inflammatory but much closer to the truth than W's "islam is a religion of peace" but W has obvious need for political cover; Franklin Graham does not but there are Christians in the Muslim world who might appreciate some

I voted for him twice (wasn't really an alternative was there)...but, IMHO, his poll numbers are low because he is following and not leading.

He is a great commander-in-chief...but we need him to give the lion's roar. I believe he can do it.

A huge vacuum of leadership exists here at home. W needs to fill it.

True, and by definition (if you are a Christian) ANY other religion is evil and wicked. Jesus said "I am THE way," not "A way," so that excludes the "can't-we-all-just-agree-that-we-served-the-same-God" crowd.

But the fact that all non-Christians are, by definition "wicked" doesn't make them all terrorists. It means people like the poet Bertrand Russell, who only wanted "peace," are as wicked as Mohammad Atta, but certainly not as violent in this life. That is why there are many, MANY Muslims who either disagree with the Koran (the way many, MANY Christians disagree with parts ot the Bible and sometimes ignore what they don't like), or who have never learned their own religion well enough to know what is in the Koran (again, like many, MANY Christians).
