Bush commutes Libby sentence

[Occhidiangela]

. . . but my mistake.

Not your only mistake, on the atheists being "not Americans" bit.

The president opposes (veto pen in hand) stem-cell research, free access to abortions, gay marriage, and *starts wars in the middle east* on the basis that he believes god talks to him.

Please, get real. You mistake rhetoric for substance. A couple of months ago an excellent article was in, of all places, Newsweek, (by a guy with a Chinese sounding name, former Bush staffer) who spelled out very clearly how creatively Bush and his gang have manipulated, and used, the evangelicals for their own purposes. Not sure if I give it a 10/10 on candor, but it rings true enough to earn a 7/10 for credibility.

If "God told me to start the war in Iraq" is the level to which you have fallen, you are discussing a cartoon, not a person who is a president. Granted, W's not the finest specimen ever under the microscope, but not a two dimensional cut out, paper doll, president of straw as you assert.

Care to try again?
