Pointing Out Hypocrisy

Of course, the DNC conference in Denver was going to give me a lot to write about.
But the only thing I have to say right now is that can you imagine if Republicans opened their convention in this way?
It's amazing to me how in general, liberal Democrats have mocked and chided President Bush for his faith.
But alas, Obama and Biden need to court the conservative Christian vote. So now, it's OK to pray in public and be open about one's religious views.

Watch another side to this: Michelle Obama has invoked use of the phrase, "Ready to roll," which one can point out is a variation of the phrase, "Let's roll," from the heroes who were on the flight that crashed in Pennsylvania on 9-11.
Just pointing out a bit of political psychology, that's all. (To put it more bluntly, I am saying that's she's using a psychological tactic to appeal to voters), as in, "No matter what happened with 9-11, we'll take charge."
