The Media Treats Obama and Bush Different On Faith-Based Initiatives

Prof Rick Garnett at Mirrors of Justice has a good post and link here at A double-standard for Pres. Obama on faith

I am glad someone is noticing. Of course there has always been a double standard between Democrat aligned faith groups( especially as to the African American Church) and those more aligned with the GOP. One just has to the largely unnoticed Smear campaign as to Congressman Cao in New Orleans by an African American Minister alliance. If largely white Evangelicals with such a organization was doing this since day one of a new incumbent Dem Rep it will be all over the news. THEOCRACY!!!

Still Bush did show (despite what the Damon Linkers of the world say) that people of faith are not looking to install some Theocracy. So Obama is some sense is building off the foundations of many that worked with Bush on that.
