I agree, but I don't know that we should dismiss the possibility of a tense batle in Baghdad that
does take a ot of lives.

you kind of did jump the gun by criticizing him on any religious parts of his speech. that shouldnt be the reason you tune in and in my opinion it is kind of nitpicky.

Politicians do things deliberately. He has basically had to tell religious groups throughout the week that although he loves God, he ultimately thinks they're all wrong (even his own Church). It's honestly a position I don't envy.
However, when he makes such a deliberate point to address how faithful he is ( all be it in response to a question), you can bet that it's intentional (his softer tone might be due to this as well). Now that several different faiths and denominations are involved in this, he can't maintain the same kind of talk (it seemingly only impresses the Southern Baptists).
