plans to expand President Bush's program steering federal social service dollars to religious groups and -- in a move sure to cause controversy -- support some ability to hire and fire based on faith.

The original version of the AP story said Barack would "support their [i.e. the religious groups'] ability to hire and fire based on faith." The Obama campaign said that characterization was inaccurate, so AP changed "their" to "some" ability . . .
But the campaign is still saying that the statement is inaccurate.
So which is it? Does Barack support religious groups having the ability/some ability/any ability to hire and fire based on faith -- as the AP has reported -- or not?
Perhaps he simultaneously supports and opposes it, a la his position(s) on gay marriage and the DC gun ban? Wow! The options are endless!
It seems increasingly apparent that he's the candidate of "change" all right -- changing views, that is.
