Not entirely. I don't want anyone's personal interpretation of religion to be imposed on others. This country was founded on Freedom of Religion and it should stay that way.

Freedom from STATE Religion was the idea(England was the model) Free exchange of open thought isn't infringing on the Halls of Govt.

Jesus is the biggest proponent of welfare in all of history, yet the religious right chooses to ignore that while using selective sections of the Bible to try and impose their personal agendas on the masses.

Not correct! The Bible says if you don't work you don't eat, and readily provides that widows and orphans be taken care of by church leadership. Please give me the scorecard on who's in the RR and imposing the beliefs on the masses.....just the ones in Congress who control the actual pursestrings

Just because I am voting for John McCain does not mean I agree with with all things republican. I agree with John McCain on the issues I feel are most important.

I also believe John McCain has tons more experience and poise then the other candidate and is the best man to become President of the Unites States of America.

I also do not think this election is between the "lesser of two evils". I feel neither McCain or Obama are evil in any way. They are both great Americans. I just agree with one's policy better than the others.

And what policies are those? I think its interesting that a middle class person would actually appreciate McCain's tax policy more than Obama's.

Obama/Dems would increase taxes and further deplete funds by causing healthcare to rise by their plans and legislation

Actually you are WRONG. Taxes would be LOWERED for middle class.

Factcheck.org.

Of course, you probably dont really care about the facts anyway if you are quoting fox news.

i haven't read obamas complete package, but have seen that he says he will keep bushes tax cuts put into effect a couple of years ago.
but he has also said he will let them expire, as they weren't permanent, which means a tax increase in the offing-back to former levels. so, if he really wanted a tax break, why not keep those cuts rather than let them expire?
