I just watched the ads.  Is Hagan originally from North Carolina?  She has a bizarre accent.

The bizarre accent was from the press conference where she addressed the ads and said she was really religious.

I'm disgusted by the fact that non-religious people are looked upon unfavorably by so many people...

I've never been religious, but I don't want a Senator elected by big money from people who want to outlaw nativity scenes at Christmas.

Godless Americans promote a secular society and don't want government associated with religion at all. It opposes Christmas being a federal holiday and any mention of in the Pledge of Allegiance or on U.S. currency. Hagan said she doesn't support the group's agenda.

And I'd be fine with Hagan either standing up for her donor base or returning the money, but not trying to have it both ways.

But I'll take a page out of General Powell's playbook here.  What's the problem if Hagan IS an Atheist?

Absolutely nothing.  Hagan should hold a press conference today and say she is proud to be an atheist.

I was born and raised in North Carolina, and I am not Vander Blubb.  Please read more carefully next time.

I think what's more disturbing about this situation is not that Dole put out the ad, but that in order for Hagan to keep herself alive, she felt she had to denounce the group.

That's the interesting part.
