Anyone catch Powell's 'Judeo-Christian' remark?

[wyldwolf]

Secretary of State Colin Powell called the United States a Judeo-Christian country on Monday but quickly amended that to "a country of many faiths."

Powell made the remark in an interview with the Charlie Rose Show on public television while talking about Washington's vision of what kind of government Iraq should have.

He said he expected it to be "an Islamic country by faith, just as we are a Judeo-Christian..."

"Well, it's hard to tell any more, but we are a country of many faiths now," he added quickly.

1. There's the "southern stragtegy" in our faces

some "slip". I'm pretty sure that was no mistake, but rather a subliminal reminder to the "base".
