3:19 pm
>> no, i don't think so at all. i think politics just like business, just like education, just like arts and culture only benefits when religion, when morals and faith has a place there. i think the public square in the united states is always enriched when ever people approach it when they are inspired by their deepest held convictions. >> dean, do you think most americans feel that way? i mean this is more than the separation of church and state that we're talking about. >> i think -- i don't think most people have a problem with faith. that's ally a good thing. the difference is it no longer influences your decisions but if your policy decisions is based on scripture. rick santorum has gone beyond any accepted view of politics
3:20 pm
and religion. he was saying the same thing that the taliban would say. that religious scripture and the laws must agree. that went too far. if more rals and ethics are wha it's about, that's a great candidate. >> i have heard you say this before and it's not just ability religion but about the right religi religion? >> that's right. for some of the people, i will be blunt. some of the leaders in the evangelical community, it's not about having faith or morals. faith to them is their faith. you must pray like them, think like them, kneel like they do. if you don't then your faith doesn't matter. most people would think that mitt romney is a good moral man. a good husband. his attack -- he is attacked for his faith. reverend jeffries said that

mormonism is a cult. that is saying it has no val validty. it doesn't matter if he is a good guy, he is not our faith so we can't trust him. the muslims attack -- the whisper campaign continues. 50% think he is muslim. >> i think we have talked about this in the past. i think that something people describe as fundamental to who they are and we have seen presidents use this quote over and over. it forms every decision i make and we're talking religion. something that fundamental and asking to be in a leadership position i think it deserves judgment. should it be the single driving factor? no. i think we have stepped too far into political correctness if we assume that religion should not be a part of that judgment process. >> do you think that religious
3:22 pm
organizations should push issues or support candidates? >> yes. yes. the answer is yes. obviously religious organizations have parts that are deep part of their ideology. if they see candidates sporting those eyeds. >> i hate to agree with will, but doi agree with them. freedom of speech, why should it be limited to a religious group. >> you brought up romney. and "saturday night live" took digs at romney last night. >> that afternoon, before the start of passover, governor romney appeared at a meeting of the united jewish appeal. >> barack adoni. >> we don't believe you. >> all right. okay. >> that was just one of them. is it looks like seriously that he is the pro-everything candidate? >> i think his campaign slogan should be me, too. whatever you are, i am.
3:23 pm
the hardest thing for romney. when the comedians give their take on a candidate, it grets traction. that's how americans learn a lot about a candidate. he is the new me, too guy. whatever you believe in, i do, too. you could get into issues. a big game hunter but doesn't own a gun. will is going disagree on this. >> romney has given people plenty of ammunition. he is capable of saying whatever you want him to say. but i think we can over do this very, very quickly. i think you would have to say a man who gives away 10% of his income, tithes it rain or shine every year to a purpose that he sees greater than hiswet, you will have a hard time convincing me that is not a principled
3:24 pm
human being. >> you are just making the point that dean made earlier. >> is that the right religion? >> i have got the last question here because we have run out of time. the leader of the southern baptist convention says that rick santorum needs to get out of the race is this the beginning of the end here? it sounds like he is pretty much resigned himself to the fact that it's over and it sounded like he was saying i'm giving up. >> you know, don, mathematically this thing has been over for a couple of weeks. when the base says it's time for you to go, the final buzzer is sounding pretty loud. >> it's time to hang up the sweater vest. >> thank you, you two. can you please get will a tie? >> i will try to buy one. >> no tie. no shaving. >> he's bradley cooper. >> the end of a long bender. is that what it looks like?
