Hussein plans on funding Muslim....Christian

...Jews and other religious groups.

CHICAGO - Reaching out to evangelical voters, Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama is announcing plans to expand President Bush's program steering federal social service dollars to religious groups and — in a move sure to cause controversy — support some ability to hire and fire based on faith.


And don't misunderstand. If you can do it for one group you must do it for all groups.

Of course I expect that the ACLU will be all over this...(sarcasm alert)

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances.


But here is the truly scary part.

But Obama's support for letting religious charities that receive federal funding consider religion in employment decisions could invite a storm of protest from those who view such faith requirements as discrimination.

Obama does not support requiring religious tests for recipients of aid nor using federal money to proselytize, according to a campaign fact sheet. He also only supports letting religious institutions hire and fire based on faith in the non-taxypayer funded portions of their activities, said a senior adviser to the campaign, who spoke on condition of anonymity to more freely describe the new policy.


Plainer. That is an open door for Muslim groups to keep out non-Muslims. We already have problems with schools. Must we pay for it?

If you want to see where this will lead, look at Great Britain. Look at Europe.

This country was founded based on keeping government out of religion and religion out of government.

Wise men those founders.
