More often than not,  I really like what this conservative evangelical (who used to be second in command of the faith-based initiative of Bush).  here he is on Obama and his church:

Some have said Obama needs to give a Checkers Speech. He doesn’t. He has done nothing wrong. His pastor holds extreme views. He has clarified and distinguished his views from his pastor’s. Done. The speech he should give is a speech about the nature of faith and politics – a speech that reminds us all about the dangers of confusing the political and the spiritual. We need that speech.

J-Walking – David Kuo blog, faith, politics, Christian blog, tempting faith: Obama and his church… the Biblical response?
