Author Says Despite Critics, Bush Will Be Guided by Faith

:-)

Might as well be! :)

I have a sister-in-law named Faith. LOL!

opinions.

The author feels...* is great.

VS.

On August 3rd, * lied in a speech regarding......

Someone said Reagan was great in all things you can't quantify: "He made us feel good about ourselves, he made America great again," etc. etc.

Because he (Reagan) absolutely can't measure up with real statistics used to measure presidents' effectiveness (job growth, deficits, et. al.)

So * is the same way now. Facts vs. opinions, thinking vs. feeling. Verrry interesting.

People who never even served with John Kerry - Don't 'think' he's a good commander.

No proof - got any documentation from superiors, written disciplinary reports? Didn't 'think' so. Any PROOF you were even on the same cheneying boat! No? Just implied innuendo.


I keep hearing " * will fight to keep you safer" - How? What's the plan? Can I get anything as far as 'proof' that he's going to make us safer? Why isn't he in Washington 24 hours a day, learning something, doing something? Doing anything!

John Kerry - going to increase funding for first responders.
- going to increase the military by 40,000 - in places other than Iraq.
- won't raise terror alerts unless there is 'credible' information. Remember when Clinton said "Be afraid they're going to attack LAX? It's because he didn't - he simply worked with law enforcement and foiled the attempt.

This is the difference folks. We use facts. They use labels, slogans and unsubstantiated sound bites.

I doubt W has ever read The Bible in his life; maybe the Cliff-Notes version..

Blessed are the peacemakers? Never heard of it.

if there were any.

Aikman notes that the history of America's chief executive office has always had a concurrent tradition of faith running through it. He points out that, since the time of George Washington, U.S. presidents have been "either men of faith or men who strongly supported faith."

Except for that Jefferson... oh and that Lincoln character... Neither one of those characters accomplished anything!

he waited outside while Martha went in. Many were concerned by his adherence to freemasonry. The guy was a deist.

He would not allow a minister to be present. He wanted no part of it.

like Bush. I think every Amerikan should be converted to Bush's beliefs otherwise they must face death. Why not just go for it? That's what the GOP wants. Also, every women who's had and abortion must where a shroud of shame as long as Bush is our ruler. All abortion clinics and unwanted pregnancies are to no longer have any available way to terminate a pregnancy. If the woman's life is threatened, then by all means, the unborn child is more important to the future of George Bush's faith than the living breathing, thinking woman! If a women has had a pregnancy in her past, she must repent by publicly taking 100 lashes by George Bush's regime of police officers.
Anyone who doesn't pray at a certain time every day, will be shot in the head on FOX to warn others that if you don't believe George Bush's way you will be executed. Have I missed anything else from this cocaine-head of a president? OH...God will forgive that George Bush paid for an abortion and knocked up some whore, because we all know, as long as you 'say' you are saved, not live like you're saved, then God absolves you of all responsibility in your life. I love Christianity, what a brilliant scam to believe in! OH, since the bible states all homosexuals will be stoned to death, there will be a mass killing on FOX, stoning all known and suspected single people over 30. All pedophile priest are of course, absolved of their sins because God forgives them! That should finally make the GOP all happy, the women back in the house, pregnant, with the husband doing whatever he wants to her as property, homosexuals eradicated from society forever, and abortion illegal once again. Why were at it, why not bring back segregation?

and kill thousands of inncoent people.

The same God who told him to cut every rich American's taxes, make the vast majority of Americans poorer and run up debt for future generations to pay.

The same God who told him to stall the advancement of scientific research that could alleviate the suffering of millions.

Yeah, that God.

The only question is whether it is bourbon or anti-psychotics....:eyes:

I can hope, cant' I ?

Every line was probably approved by Rove before it was published.

But we crashed in the mountains and I had to eat him.

(That used to be my bumpersticker.)

a front view? Hmmmmm Do his eyes belie the title and words of the book?

Anyone who believes he is "THE ANOINTED ONE" will read this and sigh and say their hallelujahs or whatever. It won't change anyone's mind.

I'm sure all the "beautiful minds" of the world agree with *!

Every night in the mirror, little Georgie has fun saying, "I'm not a man of faith, but I play one on TV."

Ugh.

he wants to lose. because he believes that god has everything planned, its out of his hands. nothing he does can change his fate.

it must drive his handlers nuts.

why is he fighting tooth and nail, using the filthiest, dirtiest tactics to smear a decent human being in order to hang onto his position? Why not just let God decide?

The ends justify the means. Its that easy.

:shrug: I guess it depends on which God YOU choose; however, it seems that they are both worshipping the same God who doesn't give a shit about anyone or anything except them!

I WANT A DIFFERENT DIETY PLEASE!!

Is this a faith based marketing group dedicated to the cult of W?

I think you can trust Buffy more.

My God would never ever order me to bomb people. My God would never condone torture. My God would never agree with rape.

And here is another thing - My God does not need my help to "preserve the sanctity of marriage".

My God does not need my help...I need his. And if GWB really listened to my God....he would know instinctively how utterly WRONG it was to invade Iraq, how wrong it was to murder 13 000 innocent Iraqi's...how wrong it was to poison their land with Depleted Uranium.

I'd say "Amen" but someone already beat me to that...:D

He doesn't worship publicly. He believes God speaks specifically to him while ignoring all others. Funny how God's orders to Bush* seem to follow the GOP and PNAC plan for empire, domination and corporate profit to a "T." :eyes:

This garbage -- all of it -- is political propaganda, period.

GWBush is a fundie extremist, this book is fundie extremist propaganda, published by a bunch of nutcases who are also fundie extremists! Helllooooooooo? There's a subtle distinction between "fundies" and "fundie extremists," and GWBush is of the latter.

Wake up, America!

Fundie extremists with money = push their religious views (for "morality" issues, etc) into our laws, into your homes, your families, into your total environment, they are on a self-righteous "moral crusade," and they have the means to do so IF in political power!

Enter GWBush and the G.O.P. (God's Own Party).

These folks should be wearing black masks, striped shirts and carry bags marked swag. Buncha grifters. Drives me crazy that just because he belches some religious quote now and then the RR looks the other way.

George Walker Bush IS the "religious right" . . . as such, his fellow-believers LOVE him in the white house as George muses and drips this biblical reference or that biblical reference, listening and hearing God speak to him giving directives ... "God is on George's side." "God is on the side of the 'religious right'."

Indeed. How can they go wrong? be wrong?

Odd thing though . . . Osama bin Laden believes the very same thing.

Yup. Most fanatics do believe as do they.

The Bush-Cheney campaign continued its church-based
outreach by giving religious volunteers 22 timelined tasks.
By July 31, 2004 volunteers are to "send your church directory
to your state Bush-Cheney '04 headquarters or give to a
BC04 field rep." By August 15, "talk to your church's seniors
or 20-30 something group about Bush-Cheney '04." In October,
"finish distributing voter guides in your church" and post notices
"about all Christian citizens needing to vote." An IRS letter to the Bush and Kerry campaigns noted, "religious organizations are
allowed to sponsor debates, distribute voter guides and conduct
voter registration guides" unless they show "a preference for or
against a certain candidate or party."
==========================================

just to see Pat Robertson explain his way out of his recent chit-chat with God in which Robertson claims he was told that Bush would be a shoe-in for re-election in 2004.

You just have to know that if Kerry wins, Robertson will blame it on some conspiracy of gays, or something. I'll love to see just what he says.

I don't believe for one minute that he'll take a loss in November in stride. I bet they even parade his mommy all over cnn and faux news to tell us how unappreciative we are of his sacrifices. :evilfrown: :puke:

edited for typo

was "born again" to off-set his drinking (and coking). As such, he must also believe that if he does what God wants him to do, he will remain dry . . . so, he's "on a mission of God" . . .

It's a trade-off. In this instance, it's a deal w/ God. How can he go wrong? For example, here's a great quote:

"I believe that God wants me to be
president." — Richard Land, a Director
of the conservative evangelical Southern
Baptist Convention, quoting GWBush on
"the day was inaugurated for his
second term as governor in 1999."
http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontline/shows/jesus/interviews/land.html

and in return:

"I, George W. Bush, Governor of Texas, do
hereby proclaim June 10, 2000, Jesus Day in
Texas and urge ... all Texans to answer the
call to serve those in need. By volunteering
their time, energy or resources to helping others,
adults and youngsters follow Christ's message
of love and service in thought and deed."
— GWBush, as Governor of TX, officially
proclaiming June 10, 2000, as
"JESUS DAY in TEXAS."

his presidency . . . this appeasement and bargaining w/ God.

Scary crap that it is!! Because the main thrust of it is is that if God says it, then it never can be wrong! George cannot make mistakes. NEVER. Here's insight into this, first-hand (when GeorgeW is left unscripted for the unexpected from the press corps):



Where and how do rational people counter this? Only by voting him the hell out of office, period.

"Just what part of the Sermon on the Mount don't you get, ASSHOLE."

I mean it's an oxymoron to think Bush and spirituality in the same brain cavity.

What Would Cthulhu Do?

George W Butcher's faith is in money and power.
