Dole's second ad on Godless Americans
Hagan Spokesman Colleen Flanagan said that the ad contradicts a statement Dole spokesman Hogan Gidley made to the Independent:
Dole spokesman Hogan Gidley insists the ad did not imply that Stone is an non-believer, or even that the fundraiser was an atheist event. "There were people there of several different, I'm sure, religious backgrounds," he says. "I'm sure there were some Christians there. But we know there to be some atheists there.""This whole thing is not about religion," Gidley says. "It's about a radical agenda from a group that wants to take ‘under God' from the Pledge of Allegiance and ‘In God We Trust' off the money, and not allow Christmas to be a federal holiday. Members of the Senate vote to confirm judges at all levels of government. And the battlefront for these cases against God in our public square are fought in local courts." (That's not quite true: Senators confirm federal judges.)
