Is this campaign about Politics or Religion? Pick one and stick to it please.

My great grandfather once said there was a sign at the local barber shop that read:

"No Discussion of Religion or Politics permitted!"

The local pastor went for a haircut and saw it. He gave his sermon that week about how there wasn't any difference.

What you vote for, you believe. What you vote for is the essence of what you value - and what your heart tells you is truth.

Politics is the "religion" to the Democrats.

If you doubt that - you are not paying attention.

What Romney believes is essential to his candidacy. For what a man believes is without a doubt a window into how he will act.

Don't believe me?

I know that my public comments and my silence about this matter gave a false impression. I misled people, including even my wife. I deeply regret that. I can only tell you I was motivated by many factors. First, by a desire to protect myself from the embarrassment of my own conduct. I was also very concerned about protecting my family. The fact that these questions were being asked in a politically inspired lawsuit, which has since been dismissed, was a consideration, too. In addition, I had real and serious concerns about an independent counsel investigation that began with private business dealings 20 years ago, dealings I might add about which an independent federal agency found no evidence of any wrongdoing by me or my wife over two years ago.

Is this comment about Politics or Religion? Pick one and stick to it please. (And I guess some might say that if you were to choose "religion" they'd recommend putting it in the "Religion" thread)

[s this campaign about Politics or Religion? ]

They are obviously both the same. I mean, if it is a political issue whether Hillary looks like a horse rode hard and put up wet, and it is political that Romney ‘looks presidential’, then I guarantee it is political to ask whether Mitt is taking prophecy from God.
