It's not really news, but I went to John Kerrys website
and it made me giggle that he has a section dedicated to
'End the Era of Ashcr0ft'
I'm starting to like this guy.
No doubt adult webmasters would be safer with him.

"I think George Bush and his administration has stepped over the line of separation of church and state," Kerry said at Hopkinton High School.
"All through our history we have drawn that line," Kerry said.
"And I will continue to draw that line."
On the subject of religion, he believes that presidents should
"recognize the diversity of faiths and even of agnosticism and atheism," and he takes the politically risky stance of admitting to a
"questioning, agnostic stage" after his experience in Vietnam.
I will vigorously protect the separation of church and state. Diversity, freedom of choice and freedom of religion are among the defining characteristics of our nation. I believe we can be people of faith while respecting the principles that are enshrined in our Constitution. Faith-based organizations make great contributions to social-service programs. However, I am wary of any direct funding of religious organizations by the federal government without constitutional safeguards and protections, such as ensuring that government funding is not used for proselytizing.
"I think that it's important to not have the church instructing politicians.
That is an inappropriate crossing of the line in America.".
