Update:
"Bawk..bawk...bawk!" ~ Chan Chandler
from the article:
The Rev. Chan Chandler didn't directly address the controversy during the service at East Waynesville Baptist Church but issued a statement afterward through his attorney saying the church does not care about its members' political affiliations.
"No one has ever been voted from the membership of this church due to an individual's support or lack of support for a political party or candidate," he said.
Nine members said they were ousted during a church gathering last week by about 40 others because they refused to support President Bush. They attended Sunday's service with their lawyer and many supporters.
"Those poor, deluded 49 members who left got it all wrong, you see...heh, heh, heh...it's
all better now."
