Rick Warren is an obnoxious slime, that is pretty much self-evident to anyone capable of independent thought.

Also tagged Obama, ReligionI keep getting libelous emails from anonymous (cowardly) lie-spreaders trying to stir up fear and uncertainty about Senator Obama. They seem to have a few common themes, but here is one that really annoys me because they are destroying an ally… I am talking about the “Obama is a baby-killer” myth. [...]

It’s a hard thing to do in today’s (lack of) job market… I wish them [...]
It’s October 17th, at 6:24 am Eastern, on News8 and I just saw the first positive campaign message advertisement I’ve seen from John McCain this election. In this ad, Senator McCain does not even mention Senator Obama. It’s ironic that a positive campaign ad shows up after the debates are over, and I [...]
