A note from a reader on Bush's Jewish tactics
I don't know if this is the way to woo Jewish voters; it certainly did not make me more likely to vote for the President.
On Friday it was reported that a "key Bush campaign adviser" calls America a "Christian nation." According to him, the separation of church and state is "a myth." And he's spread his message during more than 300 events over the past year -- events paid for by the Republican Party.From Howard O. Kieffer via John Seery.
We've also learned that George W. Bush this summer re-appointed to a presidential committee a pastor who is a national leader of "Jews for Jesus." This person has played a leadership role in national campaigns to proselytize Jews, including one last August and September -- timed to coincide with the Jewish High Holidays.
What do these two news items have in common? A religiously-exclusive worldview, and a contempt for the civil and religious liberties we hold dear.
If you've had enough of George W. Bush's tolerance of "Christian nation" rhetoric and his promoting of those who aggressively proselytize Jews, please take a moment now to sign a petition and urge George W. Bush and RNC Chairman Ed Gillespie to end the divisiveness of their of actions.
