SEPARATING CHURCH AND STATE

Did anybody else think those "Take Me Fishing" TV ads were surrepititious advertisements for LDS or another evangelical church? Well, I for one did. But apparently I am wrong. Turns out it's just another PSA by yet another Beltway lobby.

And yet I'll admit, the TV spots are affecting, conjuring images of an old man relishing time spent with his adult son, an adult daughter connecting with her elderly father, little kids asking to be taken fishing, etc. Makes you all warm and fuzzy inside.

Which is all the more reason this campaign must be stopped.
