Bush as successfully bypassed Congress over 800 times using what is called executive orders...
Some of those executive orders were for his Faith-Based Initiative programs that clearing violate separation of church and state; therefore, are unconstitutional. The fact that they were unconstitutional in itself constitutes 'too much religion' interwoven in the government.
IE, HR 921 moved the Faith-Based Initiative headquarters within the Homeland Security department. What does that tell you? It tells me that defending against terrorism has something to do with Christianity.
The only reason no politician has challenged these is because of politics... painting them as anti-religious.

You do realize that the government is the government is the government. It is designed to be stable as we change leadership every 4 or 8 years. So your question should read is this Administration too religious. And my answer to that is I have not seen any evidence where they have allowed the bible to dictate any of their actions. The president is a person of faith, but that faith is a personal strength that he draws on to help him make the right decision. I can't believe people have allowed the media and the left wing liberals to make being a person of faith or any faith a bad thing.

Happily, the people in our govt are religious. Is the government religious? You tell me. When we're removing monuments and symbols of faith from govt buildings and the supreme court allowing mothers to have doctors cut the babies out of them and murder them, we have a problem with morality and a huge LACK of religion.
