Quote of the Day: Interfaith Alliance President Rev. C. Welton Gaddy

“It appears that the White House is soliciting support for

(Supreme Court nominee) Harriet Miers by focusing on her evangelical faith.

Just as opposition to a candidate for the Supreme Court because of their

faith is wrong, so is using faith to garner support. The administration

can’t have it both ways.”

-The Rev. C. Welton Gaddy, president of the Washington-based

Interfaith Alliance, responding to reports that President Bush is telling

worried conservatives to support Miers because she is an evangelical

Christian.
