God talk by McCain

Fight, is that all McCain wants! It seems he thinks America wants to fight with someone, anyone.

Like a schoolyard bully America foists its ideals and ammunition without apology.

Guys like McCain need the limelight and the bravado to "scare" American enemies away? More like he needs the attention!

And I thought Jesus was a pacifist, don't remember reading about him fighting, except in the temple he chased out the businessmen (with a small rope whip)who were ripping off the poor. They were selling them defective offerings and charging high prices for money changing.

I don't see McCain chasing out the money changers(remember the Keating five)?

You know we all have views on Mccain and what he would like to do for us and the USA. So vote your way then when push comes to shove you can say I did this with my vote. God or Bad. But please vote. For we the USA are under attack on all sides to take us down and it will not stop till we stand up for ourselfs be it fighting or praying. God Bless (ASAP)

All politicians have to say certain things to get elected. In this country, as far as the majority is concerned, it's all about defense, God, the economy, and all the other hot-button items people are concerned about. God especially however, is something that often comforts the masses when their leaders invoke his name, and, during election-season, I would be *highly* surprised if any politician hoping to BE elected, didn't at least mention God once in a while. Otherwise, they risk losing their "electability" in the eyes of the people. Whether they truly believe what they say, and whether what they say actually drives their conscience can only be seen in the deeds they've performed in the present and in the past. Has McCain shown that what he's saying now corresponds with his behavior in the past? Has Obama? Also, both men are trying to become President of the United States, not to become Pope or Bishop, or to head a religious order. Can't we just judge these men based on what they do, instead of on solely what they say? After all, actions speak louder than words. If nothing else, the current administration in DC has *certainly* taught us that!

John McCain is a reasonable enough man that he must cringe inside every time he makes a capital G reference for the purpose of placating the Republican base. To his credit, and unlike Bush or Palin, he's no mystic and seems unlikely to make political or military decisions based on the voices in his head. But all those G-bombs in his speech are yet another indication that this country is still at least a generation away from the end of religious prejudice.

African-American president? Sure.

Woman president? Someday soon.

A president who doesn't claim to be a personal friend of the creator of the universe? Dream on.

I personally do not care about any of the candidates relationship to God. I care about how they would govern if elected. What scares me is someone like Sarah Palin who has such extreme views on moral issues. She is absolutely frightening. I can't imagine even thinking about banning certain books from a public library.

"God especially however, is something that often comforts the masses when their leaders invoke his name, and, during election-season, I would be *highly* surprised if any politician hoping to BE elected, didn't at least mention God once in a while.

Not a good reason for god to be involved in politics, seeing how he, she or it isn't present for the precedings.

I am not talking about santa claus. the easter bunny or fairies. People are making important decisions based on a fairy tale man!
