TIME Magazine: Battling the Bishops: "Some say there is even a double standard at work. For all the attention that has been given Kerry's problems with the clergy of his church, 'there have not been an equal number of stories about the way Bush has ignored his own faith group, the United Methodist Church, by declining to accept a delegation of bishops that wanted to talk to him about the war,' says Philip Amerson, president of the Claremont School of Theology, a United Methodist seminary in Claremont, Calif."
Maybe that's because no one gives 2 hoots for the moral authority of the Methodists.
