Christian separatist movement supports speech on illegals

WASHINGTON - Christian separatists are promoting Rep. Tom Tancredo's upcoming speech in South Carolina, but the outspoken congressman has no affiliation with their group, his spokesman said Friday.
The Christian Exodus movement, which wants to move thousands of Christians to South Carolina to form a Christian-run government, has promoted Tancredo's Oct. 15 immigration speech at Greenville Tech in conjunction with its own conference across town that day.

"It's a complete coincidence," Tancredo spokesman Will Adams said Friday. "I was unaware of their conference until you brought it up."
Adams said Tancredo, a Littleton Republican, has absolutely no affiliation with the group, which says the United States has lost its moral foundations because Christian conservatives are spread out and diluted across the country.
Cory Burnell, president of Christian Exodus, said his group changed the quitting time for its event so attendees could hear Tancredo's speech.
Tancredo, a possible 2008 presidential candidate, has tried to draw a distinction between himself and some groups that sympathize with his immigration views. He's concerned about people with "fringe" motives and says the immigration issue is not about race. Supporters, he said, should denounce "those who have only hate in their hearts and a perverted view of race in their minds.""The defense of a nation begins at it's borders" Tancredo
