I happened to slip over this banana, this is what Bush said, this is quiet recent.
"No, I don't know that Atheists should be considered as citizens, nor should they be considered as patriots. This is one nation under God."
-George H.W. Bush, 41st president of the United States
Ohhh riight, i get it Mr Bush. I hear you loud son. I also see you have a master plan, to rid America of those Atheists? So What's on your mind man? should we gather them all up and Gas those critters to death or what? How about we start with NASA?

I mean, come on!
Bush a Christian? He doesn't have the slightest respect for any of the 10 amendments! He is not worthy of even utter the name of Jesus unless he means to ask for Christ forgiveness!
Please dont call Bush a Christian if u dont want to make God angry. A terrorist is all he is

This quote is from a campaign interview of George Bush senior.
That quote is an AWFUL thing for Bush to say, if in fact he said it. He had no right to insinuate those with a different belief system should have a reduced stake in this country. Differences in opinion are what this nation was founded on; this quote illustrates our former president's lack of respect for the constituency he was serving. Bush was using his Christianity as a political weapon, and that is really sad.
That being said, this quote is over 15 years old. Why are you bringing it up now?

This is a silly question in general especially those that are atheists that say President Bush is going to hell, since you're atheist you don't believe in hell anyway. Get a clue, and stop hating our President since at least he doesn't have an intern under his desk.

I'm an atheist, but I find it very hard to believe that Bush Senior really believes this. One out-of-context quote from a lifetime career in the public eye.

Interesting...where are this guys citations? I absolutely believe he could have said it, but there aren't any quotes around the words. It doesn't appear to be a direct citation. Do you know when and where it was said? It is definately worth looking into.
Peace&Love

Sounds like its either
1) off a liberal web site some where from the depths of the internet
2) taken completely out of its original context

Bush is a terrorist and I hope Him and all his illegal cohorts read this . It is a sad nation we live in. Most people are just so happy driving their SUV's, living in there half million dollar homes taking there vacations when they want, that they choose to blind themselves to the horrors of this government.
