3. the issue may be resonating
some quite moderate Repubs at the office were talking about this, and they said that if the General couldn't express his religious opinion in his own church, in front of his own congregation, then something about the First Ammendment was way out of whack.

Caution Will Robinson: These folks at work are not fundies...more like Unitarians and Catholics. I raised the issue to them of speaking while in uniform, and they retorted that one's church is not exactly a press conference. This is a sticky wicket...and the way things have been going, I wouldn't be suprised in the slightest if it backfired on those who seek to bring the general down.

I wonder where the ACLU comes down on this?
