Republican party admits that they told Americans that Kerry will ban the bible - unbelievable but true
Thanks to Fred Wilson for pointing out this NYT article that documents the direct mail campaign that the Republicans used in Arkansas and West Virginia – traditionally religious states.

A liberal religious group, the Interfaith Alliance, circulated a copy of the Arkansas mailing to reporters yesterday to publicize it. “What they are doing is despicable,” said Don Parker, a spokesman for the alliance. “They are playing on people’s fears and emotions.”
In an e-mail message, Christine Iverson, a spokeswoman for the Republican National Committee, confirmed that the party had sent the mailings.
UNQUOTE
This is divisive, deceitful, manipulative, blatantly wrong and untrue, and unfortunately par for the course for a party that can’t seem to come up with a vision going forward to dig themselves out of the largest fiscal hole in years and the quagmire in Iraq. It’s juvenile and irresponsible – which is wholly consistent with how this administration has acted for the past four years.
