Religious Right

• November 17 -- Religious
Right, but "Religious Left"
David Kirkpatrick mulls post-election religious grumbling among Democrats:
"Some Democrats are scrambling to shake off their secular image, stepping
up efforts to organize the 'religious left' and debating changes to how they
approach the cultural flashpoints of same-sex marriage and abortion." But
why the quote marks around "religious left"?

• May 1 -- Liberal
Lieberman’s Non-Threatening Religion
In one sense, the Times story on Democratic presidential candidate Joseph
Lieberman is heartening, a sympathetic look at the trials faced by a devoutly
religious politician. But is the liberal Lieberman getting breaks because of the
Times new respect for religion, or because he’s a less inviting target than
conservatives John Ashcroft and Rick Santorum?
