Culture War Games: Religion and the 2012 Election

7/2/2012; 57 minutes

The economy was supposed to be the number one issue in the 2012
election. But just seven months before American voters go to the
polls, the culture wars are back. Liberals howl about the GOP's "war
on women," while conservative claim Democrats are waging a "war on religion." Writer and former senior editor at TIME Magazine Amy Sullivan asks why issues of religion and politics so polarize
Americans? And why do we view political opposition as a "war" on
everything we hold dear?
