It's not that I don't believe McCain is a man of faith. I don't see how anyone can't be moved by his memories of praying to God in his prison cell in Vietnam. These items just seem a little "pandery" to me, that's all.

-"We can't let immigrants break our laws with impunity. We can't leave our borders undefended. But these people are God's children, who wanted simply to be Americans, and we cannot forget the humanity God commands of us as we seek a remedy to this problem."
-"In my recent visit to Mexico, I visited the Shrine of the Virgin of Guadalupe, and was greatly moved by the experience, and came to appreciate all the more your deep devotion to the God who created us and loves us all equally. I will honor your contributions to America for as long as I live. We would not be the special country we are without you."
