 |

Just watched Jay Leno and Bright Eyes was on. I watched the song and noticed the crowd cheering after every verse and reflected on how it's so not 2002 anymore.

"When The President Talks To God"
When the president talks to God
Are the conversations brief or long?
Does he ask to rape our women��s' rights
And send poor farm kids off to die?
Does God suggest an oil hike
When the president talks to God?
When the president talks to God
Are the consonants all hard or soft?
Is he resolute all down the line?
Is every issue black or white?
Does what God say ever change his mind
When the president talks to God?
When the president talks to God
Does he fake that drawl or merely nod?
Agree which convicts should be killed?
Where prisons should be built and filled?
Which voter fraud must be concealed
When the president talks to God?
When the president talks to God
I wonder which one plays the better cop
We should find some jobs. the ghetto's broke
No, they're lazy, George, I say we don't
Just give 'em more liquor stores and dirty coke
That's what God recommends
When the president talks to God
Do they drink near beer and go play golf
While they pick which countries to invade
Which Muslim souls still can be saved?
I guess god just calls a spade a spade
When the president talks to God
When the president talks to God
Does he ever think that maybe he's not?
That that voice is just inside his head
When he kneels next to the presidential bed
Does he ever smell his own bullshit
When the president talks to God?
I doubt it
I doubt it

You should have reflected on the fact that the Tonight Show is filmed in California.
The rest of us reelected him handily. |

| No, I reflected on the fact that even the Tonight Show didn't have anything close to that in 2002. |

| I don't mind having a president who talks to god. I only worry when he thinks god talks back to him. |

Well, the Oscars are done out of California too and Michael Moore sure got a lot of boos. |

Serious request:
Can someone please provide a link to a news story or other article where Bush is directly quoted saying he "talks to God."
Thanks

I saw him on CNN talking to Larry King. He was going on and on about how he is doing God's work and that God wants this or that. His idiot wife did the same thing. The man is a total moron, a bafoon and I think he truly believes he is on God's mission. Which makes him dangerous because he has no concept of bending, of dialogue. Its all a monologue with the idiot. Do as I say or else. |

Well, you may not like the source, but this chap claims that Bush told him that God was telling him what to do.
------------------------------------------------
According to Abbas, immediately thereafter Bush said: "God told me to strike at al Qaida and I struck them, and then he instructed me to strike at Saddam, which I did, and now I am determined to solve the problem in the Middle East. If you help me I will act, and if not, the elections will come and I will have to focus on them."

There are plenty where he says how much he prays:
| Quote: |
"My faith plays a big part in my life. And when I was answering that question what I was really saying to the person was that I pray a lot. And I do. And my faith is a very, it's very personal. I pray for strength. I pray for wisdom. I pray for our troops in harm's way. I pray for my family. I pray for my little girls. |

According to The Faith of George W. Bush, by Stephen Mansfield:
| Quote: |
| Bush said to James Robinson: 'I feel like God wants me to run for President. I can't explain it, but I sense my country is going to need me. Something is going to happen... I know it won't be easy on me or my family, but God wants me to do it.' |
Don't think he's ever used those exact words, but praying is commonly thought of as talking to God, is it not? |

The guy is so religious yet he is:
1. In bed with multi billion dollar multinationals bent on nothing but making huge profits
2. Starting wars to make companies even richer
3. known to be the governor under whose leadership the State executed the most convicts in history
Was Jesus be a pro big business, pro capital punishment kinda guy?
Somehow for a guy who is so religious, Bush seems to do everything Jesus said NOT to do. Funny, eh? |

Thing is you think he would clue in when he sees the problems blending fundamentalist Islam with government is causing him. That maybe there is some wisdom to the separation of church and state. But no. See those Muslims are deluded. Jesus is the real savior. So naturally they'll blunder... |

| I think Leno was a little surprised and this will hurt his ratings. |

Hell, I might even watch him again! Remember, the prez goes to bed at nine, and I suspect so do a lot of his constituents. I suspect the demographics of the late night audience may tend towards the blue side. |
