How about CNN's political ticker:
• CNN's Political Ticker blog -- Obama says he hopes to be an "instrument of God:" During a Sunday service at an evangelical church in Greenville, S.C., Democratic presidential hopeful Sen. Barack Obama told the crowd of nearly 4,000 that he hopes to be "an instrument of God" and asked for their prayers to help him do that. "I am confident that we can create a Kingdom right here on Earth," he also said.

God's kingdom on Earth cannot exist until the return of Christ, or that's what you believe if you are a Christian. No politician can do this. They can't even come close. Despite any good intentions they may have, they will be corrupted by power or money, or just crash because they were too good for the job (like Jimmy Carter)
Are you implying that f Bush ran in '08, then he could establish God's kingdom on Earth? Do you pay any attention to this man at all or are you blinded by propaganda?

Obama. So what? Hillary is a member of a secretive religious group that wants to bring Jesus back to Capitol Hill. I guess you athiests are going to have to get your own candidate just like the Christian Right whackos.

I think the difference is that Obama doesn't plan to do it by banning abortion, putting prayer in schools and nuking the Middle East.
Even so, disappointing news.

I don't believe a single word from a source like "NewsBusters".
Find something less biased then we can talk.
