>God Spin
Sunday, October 17th, 2004>
Sen. John Kerry, risking violation of the Third Commandment, has taken up the multiple invocation of “God” as newly-minted spin in the penultimate days of the presidential campaign.
Translation: fuzzball aimed at any voter who possibly may care (and polls show there are a lot of them) that deep down inside Kerry is a religious guy as proven by his often repeated reminder that not only did he serve in Viet Nam but he had an earlier tour of duty as an altar boy when attending prep school in Switzerland. “But” (wink, wink) Kerry fully “understands” and “recognizes” the right of so many of his religion-loathing supporters to think what they think about Bush and other Bible-reading Christians.
