This article is a true example of how gullible the average citizen is. Especially when it comes to condoning every move the Bush admin. makes. Where is the moral clarity and leadership, when big buisness and ballooning deficits are the hallmarks of this admin.

Shaw (president of the National Baptist Convention USA Inc.)accused the Bush administration of leading the nation into the Iraq war under false pretenses and favoring the wealthy. Privatizing Social Security and revamping the tax code will only put more money and power into the wealthy's hands, he said. Shaw also accused President Bush of using his faith to disguise his motives in the same way the devil cited Scripture in tempting Christ.
''We bite into it and swallow not just the bait but also the hook,'' Shaw said.
Shaw's message was the talk of the afternoon. It resembled the preaching of Martin Luther King Jr., said the Rev. Amos Brown, pastor of the 2,000-member Third Baptist Church of San Francisco.
