Wow, McCain has come a long way from his attack on Falwell

And that journey has been in the wrong direction. Not only did he cuddle up to the late Falwell and make kissy noises, he is now claiming to be Baptist, and now says this:

"A recent poll found that 55 percent of Americans believe the U.S. Constitution establishes a Christian nation. What do you think?
I would probably have to say yes, that the Constitution established the United States of America as a Christian nation. But I say that in the broadest sense. The lady that holds her lamp beside the golden door doesn't say, “I only welcome Christians.” We welcome the poor, the tired, the huddled masses. But when they come here they know that they are in a nation founded on Christian principles."

Um, could he perhaps point to the part of the Constitution that does this?

Sigh.
