Lady Sage: Out of curiosity, in what way is the President encroaching on your freedom of religion?
As far as the topic goes:
I don't think it's fair to ask a leader to divorce his religious beliefs from his work. How should he even begin to do that? If his belief is sincere, is it even possible for him to temporarily re-arrange his entire worldview during the workday? It's sort of a ridiculous demand.
Certainly faith could conceivably lead to disastrous policy consequences. If that happens, the responsibility lies with those who elected him. When you vote for a man, you vote for all of him; his convictions, including religious ones, are part of the package, and we should consider them when we vote.
