Don't keep religion out of politics, but watch your step, writes David Broder
"Americans welcome the sight of their presidents—or presidential candidates—seeking spiritual counsel," writes the syndicated columnist. "But voters do not want their presidents taking orders from preachers or rabbis or priests—or going to war against prominent clergymen." His article appeared yesterday next to a ridiculous column by
William Pfaff saying George Bush "implicitly endorses" Pat Robertson's beliefs "that world affairs are manipulated against Christian and American interests by a clandestine alliance of international bankers, the United Nations, Communists and other forces of the extreme left, and by a mysterious movement of 'Illuminati' originating in the 18th-Century European Enlightenment." And by appearing in the opinion page of the Chicago Tribune, I guess Pfaff implicitly endorses everything that's ever appeared there as well.
