Such as what? The Sloe* Biden rule?

To your other note above, you’re kidding on the “Republican refusal to separate Church and State” statement, right?

Who ACTUALLY campaigns IN Churches? Holds fundraisers? Have Ministers endorsing candidates all over the place and actively campaigning for them?

It ain a bunch of Lutherans or Presbyterians.

What matters is the type of legislation they are pushing and whether it violates the basic democratic principle of the separation of church and state. If you don't understand the importance of this to a democracy, you should google up on it.

Compare Gore to Trump on how they handle defeat. Nothing more needs to be said. The Gore outcome 20 years ago is actually when I officially declared it's impossible to vote Republican for any federal office until Dems control the Supreme Court, for the sake of democracy. And here 20 years later my fears are proving to be more than justified.
