The Hairy Thunderers Main Man

Preznit Coke Lines is pretty much a religious fanatic. No matter how much the GOoPers try and paint his religious views as "moderate"...when someone in a position of authority spends his days getting advice from his personal Kozmik Muffin on minor things like War, fanatic is about the only handle that fits.

George W. Bush is among the most openly religious presidents in U.S. history. A daily Bible reader, he often talks about how Jesus changed his heart. He has spoken, publicly and privately, of hearing God's call to run for the presidency and of praying for God's help since he came into office.
...
How voters perceive Bush's beliefs could be a major factor in a tight presidential contest. As he courts both conservative Christians and swing voters, the GOP is seeking to move those perceptions toward the middle.
Yeah, like what, he's a "uniter not a divider"? There's some totally believable rhetoric...not.

Then there's this little gem, and shame on MSGOP for leaving out the context of who's speaking:

"I think most of us recognize him as a guy who sure has the same orthodox beliefs we do," said Charles W. Colson, a Nixon White House aide who heads Prison Fellowship Ministries.
So, Chuck, what orthodox beliefs would those be, subverting the constitution? Committing Felonies on behalf of your crooked boss? Testify, Brother! Oh, sorry, John Dean beat you to it all those years ago.

Ah, I see Chuck Colson has crawled out from under the slimy rock where he has been hiding (and where the scumbag belongs).

Chuck Colson has higher standards than half the so called lousy media.

Charles Colson, suit and tie version of Charles manson. Both guys talk to god all the time and tell their followers as much. Hey maybe they can be the next repub ticket...

Got news for these neocons.... Charley don't surf!

Perhaps Chuck Colson will do for Bush what he did for Nixon.

Shag, that would indeed be sweet and poetic justice. We should be so lucky twice in one lifetime.

Nixon only talked with Lincoln late at night. I suppose that Jesus is getting tired of the 24/7/365 'on-call'. Hope he charges by the hour.

couple this religious nonsense with his obvious inability to speak the language, and it becomes clear we're dealing with a mental defective.

This reminds me of a time while I was in the Navy, Stationed at McMurdo Station. I was a 24 year old 2nd class Aerographer and I assisted a shiney new 20 year old Lt who would take the charts I plotted into another office, spread them on the floor, prostrate himself on the charts and then waited for the 'SPIRIT' to invest itself in him to analize the charts.

All I can say is thank God for the Senior Chief who would always check the chart to make sure that the spirit knew its stuff.

Calling himself a "saved Christian", Bush really means that he waives all his past present, and future transgressions. What a racket?! Being "saved" means never having to atone or own up to your mistakes. And does Bush even go to a regular church? As I understand it, he doesn't even attend a church regularly. Not that that means anything, except that the "religious man" crock is just a ruse or a crutch or, more likely, both.

I always thought he pretended to be a Christian to court the wingnut vote. If you go by his actions he is not a Christian. And actions are all that count.

His favorite misquote of scripture is a continual soundbite- "Ye shall know them by their words..."

It's by their works(deeds).

Nice of Falwell to follow-up on this. He's too bust meeting the messiah rev. Moon.
