What should offend you is how devoted to Christian principles your "boy" is....
George W. Bush proclaims himself a born-again Christian. However, Bush and fellow self-anointed neo-Christians like House Majority Leader Tom DeLay, John Ashcroft, and sports arena Book of Revelations carnival hawker Franklin Graham appear to wallow in a "Christian" blood lust cult when it comes to practicing the teachings of the founder of Christianity. This cultist form of Christianity, with its emphasis on death rather than life, is also worrying the leaders of mainstream Christian religions, particularly the Pope.
One only has to check out Bush's record as Governor of Texas to see his own preference for death over life. During his tenure as Governor, Bush presided over a record setting 152 executions, including the 1998 execution of fellow born-again Christian Karla Faye Tucker, a convicted murderer who later led a prison ministry. Forty of Bush's executions were carried out in 2000, the year the Bush presidential campaign was spotlighting their candidate's strong law enforcement record. The Washington Post's Richard Cohen reported in October 2000 that one of the execution chamber's "tie-down team" members, Fred Allen, had to prepare so many people for lethal injections during 2000, he quit his job in disgust.
Bush mocked Tucker's appeal for clemency. In an interview with Talk magazine, Bush imitated Tucker's appeal for him to spare her life - pursing his lips, squinting his eyes, and in a squeaky voice saying, "Please don't kill me." That went too far for former GOP presidential candidate Gary Bauer, himself an evangelical Christian. "I think it is nothing short of unbelievable that the governor of a major state running for president thought it was acceptable to mock a woman he decided to put to death," said Bauer.
A former Texas Department of Public Safety officer, a devout Roman Catholic, told this reporter that evidence to the contrary, Bush was more than happy to ignore DNA data and documented cases of prosecutorial misconduct to send innocent people to the Huntsville, Texas lethal injection chamber. He said the number of executed mentally retarded, African Americans, and those who committed capital crimes as minors was proof that Bush was insensitive and a "phony Christian." When faced with similar problems in Illinois, Governor George Ryan, a Republican, commuted the death sentences of his state's death row inmates and released others after discovering they were wrongfully convicted. Yet the Republican Party is pillorying Ryan and John Ashcroft's Justice Department continues to investigate the former Governor for political malfeasance as if Bush and Ashcroft are without sin in such matters. Hypocrisy certainly rules in the Republican Party.
Bush's blood lust has been extended across the globe. He has given the CIA authority to assassinate those deemed a threat to U.S. national interests. Bush has virtually suspended Executive Orders 11905 (Gerald Ford), 12306 (Jimmy Carter), and 12333 (Ronald Reagan) which prohibit the assassination of foreign leaders. Bush's determination to kill Saddam Hussein, his family, and his top leaders with precision-guided missiles and tactical nuclear weapon-like Massive Ordnance Air Blast (MOAB) bombs is yet another indication of Bush's disregard for his Republican and Democratic predecessors. It now appears that in his zeal to kill Hussein, innocent civilian patrons of a Baghdad restaurant were killed by one of Bush's precision Joint Direct Attack Munitions (JDAMs). Like it or not, Saddam Hussein was recognized by over 100 nations as the leader of Iraq -- a member state of the United Nations. Hussein, like North Korea' Kim Jong Il, Syria's Bashir Assad, and Iran's Mohammed Khatami, are covered by Executive Order 12333, which the Bush mouthpieces claim is still in effect. Bush's "Christian" blood cult sees no other option than death for those who become his enemies. This doctrine is found no place in Christian theology.
Bush has not once prayed for the innocent civilians who died as a result of the U.S. attack on Iraq. He constantly "embeds" himself with the military at Goebbels-like speech fests and makes constant references to God when he refers to America's "victory" in Iraq, as if God endorses his sordid killing spree. He makes no mention of the children, women, and old men killed by America's "precision-guided" missiles and bombs and trigger-happy U.S. troops. In fact, Bush revels in indiscriminate blood letting. Since he never experienced such killing in Southeast Asia, when he was AWOL from his Texas Air National Guard unit, Bush just does not seem to understand the horror of a parent watching one's children having their heads and limbs blown off in a sudden blast of shrapnel or children witnessing their parents burning to death with their own body fat nurturing the flames.
Better to find the "Word" than to make a mockery of it.
He's a liar and a hypocrite, obsessed with power and control, and you are just happy with that? Fvcking "two"-face.

Game,
Anyone can be religious and believe in what they choose, but just don't force me to share their beliefs or live as they think they should. This country was founded on the principle to choose religion's role in your life as you wish and now I have all these politicians who somehow missed this part of history or something. John Kerry has said faith matters greatly to him, but he won't impose that faith on the people. That is exactly what our founding fathers would have said.

Cuz, Wild Bill and Ekk
No way in any sense of the word is George Bush a Christian.
He can claim and say anything he wants about his faith in
God, his actions tell otherwise. I remember the KF Tucker
fiasco. Any true Christian would not have done what he did.
Even members of the far right religious groups frowned with
their disapproval. He is just an arrogant, outrageous person.
The Christ talked about in the New Testament is the exact
opposite of George Bush, he is an embarassment to people
that truly believe in an always forgiving and merciful God.
Please.

Thank you for clearing that up Stacilu.....glad you have a handle on what a "true christian" does and doesn't do. LOL. "NO WAY in any sense of the word in George Bush a Christian" oh really..STACILU a Christian is a person that believes in Jesus Christ as the Mesiah as prophesied in the Old Testament. I am sure he believes in this. Good Grief.

Obviously the religion and politics issue is crazy.
I have my opinion about G Bush and his
Christianity. You have your opinion about
G Bush and his Christianity. I think my
opinion is backed by his actions. I can
but will not give dozens of reasons why I
believe what I do. We will only resort to
fundamental beliefs and then into doctrine
and the subject will become confused, disorganized
and irrational. I will allow you the last word.

You say he isnt a Christian. I say Christians are not perfect just forgiven. I don't think you know what a Christian is, if Jesus Christ is your example then there was only one Christian lived ever and the Billion + wallking around calling themself Christians are frauds. Look I know you dont like Bush and disagree with everything he stands for but you sound really ignorant saying he doesnt believe in Jesus Christ as the mesiah...thats all.
