The selection of Sen. Joseph Biden as Barack Obama's running mate underscores, once again, the challenges faced by these candidates among evangelical Christians and Catholics. In the case of Obama, the concern is that his faith is not the sort of Christianity that most evangelicals or Catholics would profess. Far from solving this problem, the selection of Biden brings to the ticket a man at odds with the highest levels of his own Catholic faith.

Well, that Biden pick certainly helped Obama rally the Catholics.
Outstanding.
When John Edwards admitted having an affair and lying about it,,,he was no longer welcome at the Democratic Convention,,,and he lost his speaking role,,,
and because Edwards was no longer welcome or available,,,,
Bill Clinton took his place.
Great post!
It doesn’t matter to either one of them.
POWER on this earth is more important to them
Too bad ordained priests in the hierarchy don’t want to talk tough in public, as this layman does. Joe Biden SHOULD have all sorts of public problems with the Catholic Church, as should Nancy Pelosi.
They are not after power, they hate power- the dRATS are bent on the destruction of the american way of life.

My concern is that his faith is that of most politicians. Brought out of the closet for elections. Never followed afterwards.
In Obamas case being a Christian doesn’t square well with his being a wannabe Communist.

This had nothing to do with “morality change of heart”.
It had everything to do with political strategy. The Demonrats merely put their finger to wind, calculated that Edwards would offend a lot of voters ( who **do** have morals) and chose an different speaker who might bring in more votes.
this man gets it........best short summation of obama/biden I have seen by a Catholic! God Bless Carl Anderson.
Best Catholic summation of the biden pick yet! God Bless Carl Anderson.
LOL......DANG the computer coughed this back at me on my end.........didn’t thing the first ping took. tis worthy of a double ping though!
Sorry, but I forgot to add the /s

THey have to be in POWER to do that. They will use that POWER to destroy the U.S.. They HATE capitalism and they HATE what is right.
