    Do you honestly think people hate Ashcroft because he believes in God?

    Yes. It can't be because of anything that he's done in office. The Ashcroft hate-fest started before his confirmation hearings.

    Do you think people hate Clinton because he believes in God?

    Bill Clinton believes in Bill Clinton and little else.

    Do you believe that people hated Reagan because he believed in God?

    Yes.

    Do you think people hate Osama Bin Laden because he believes in God?

    Depends on who you ask.

    Do you think that people hated Will Rogers? He believed in God, and was beloved.
