I should have linked to this article a month ago

I heart Amy Sullivan, who is a contributor (probably even an editor) at The Washington Monthly. Check out this article that she wrote for Slate, called "In Good Faith," which is the most accurate take I've seen on a speech given by Sen. Barack Obama in early July at a progressive religious conference. The speech caused all sorts of flutter, since he used words like "faith," "jesus," "abortion," "shame," and all those loaded words that makes politics a circus. It's good stuff...check it out, if you haven't seen it already.
