have fun playing spell police,

it doesn't help the content of your argument any.

now then, if you actually want to talk about my points:
As i understand it, GW has a DUi conviction in Maine... as for mentioning his daughters.. it was an example of his consideration of values. Apparently he doesn't consider it a big deal, if his daughers get into such trouble, but he's content to defining morality for the reast of the country's children (and adults).

"Practice morality? So today I'll practice morality and tomorrow I won't, and maybe all next week I'll be moral, and next week not... sounds a bit odd doesn't it."
- of course it sounds odd, but it happens among christians and non-christians alike.. how does this do anything to argue against my point that christianity != morality? or are you just attempting to confuse the issue?

"I believe morality is a characteristic of a person. And I think he does "practice" morality, part of which comes from a strong Christian background."
- that's nice, but i can think of many Christians who were immoral and many non-christians who were moral. Christianity does NOT have a monopoly on morality... heck, if you look at the corruption in the Church itself, i'm surprized that people even try to keep that argument.
- morality is something we either accept and practice or we don't. regardless of what religion we believe in, there are values that are taught to us by society itself.
- to take your argument to the extreme; do you mean then that Buddhists, Aetheists, Agnostics, etal don't have a basis for being moral people?

"Morals and religion, the two things that really steam the liberals of the nation. And two things that Kerry doesn't have a lick of."
- as someone else pointed out, Kerry is a practicing Catholic... and do you have any reason for sayign he has no morals (atleast in comparason to Bush)?
- Morals don't steam me any... what steams me, is people using some kind of false pretense to claim a higher morality, when they have none.
- as for Religion, i think it's valuable to society, the only part that steams me abotu it, is when people think THEIR religion is the only one that is right.. or worse a good basis for morality.

- Morality existed LONG before Christianity... one day, you might get off your "high moral horse," when you realize that you actually have to squat down to sit on it...
