Surgeon General Nominee Is Assailed for Church Role

How much more of this do you think will happen in the coming months as President Bush tries to re-win the evangelicals to the GOP camp? I don't know if Dr. James W. Holsinger Jr. is explicitly dominionist (sometimes I think we confuse that with generic Christian Nationalism or Christian conservatism. Now, I know that Dominionists COULD be in the Methodist, indeed, the Presbyterian church houses many yet the Presbyterian church as a whole is generally slightly liberal mainline Christianity), but he does seem like a non-so-subtle attempt to appeal to that base. Now, Dr. Holsinger may be qualified, so its really hard to say, but that is, I think, a sign of the difficulty of dealing with Christian Nationalism.
