The Preacher in Chief?
Do Republican candidates' loyalties lie with the Constitution or with fundamentalist Christianity?

BY CHERI DELBROCCO | DECEMBER 13, 2007

As we all know, the president of the United States is elected by and swears to serve all citizens of this nation by protecting and defending the Constitution, not the Bible or any other religious text. America — founded by men who in some instances proclaimed Jesus as their God — was created to assure the freedoms of religion and conscience without regard to an individual's personal beliefs, creed, or worship practices.

The Republican Party appears to have abandoned any commitment to this tenet of the Constitution and is positioned to nominate a preacher in chief, whose first loyalty will be to the dogmas of Christian fundamentalism.

This writer does a good job of pointing out the hypocrisy of the GOP (God's Own Party).
