For those of you that have been following, yet another, God-awful US election, you're well aware of the recent specualtions about Barack Obama being a Muslim. Does it really matter? What difference would it make if the man was a Scientologist?

It shouldn't matter, but it always does.
I think that religion should be something not discussed in a presidential election. Whatever happened to separation of Church and State? |

Whatever happened to separation of Church and State? There is an imaginary line between the two, however, muthaf**kas think they don't have to honor that line if it means gaining a political edge. Case in point; gay marriage, or "partnerships." I personally believe that Obama will be a good figurehead for this country. |
