Im just wondering if anyone can actually quote him in saying that God told him to go into Iraq. He's given some good reasons like promoting democracy in the middle east, and some really bad ones like weapons of mass distruction. But I've never heard him say anything about God telling him to go there. Where is this idea coming from?
Also, the new movie "jesus camp" pretends to be a documentary of a christian camp. I can assure you nothing like that camp exists anywhere. The makers exagerate a little too overzelously to make their point. You have to be pretty ignorant to believe Christians actually worship George Bush.

I wish God would tell him to resign, and come clean about the no-bid contracts granted to his buddies in big-oil. Bush is Cheney's puppet, and Cheney is one evil mofo!

I don't think Bush talks to God anymore than the rest of us. Bush has strong beliefs, just like many other Americans, therefore he lives his life according to his beliefs. You can't separate a man's religion from his everyday life. I have to see it, hear it, or experience it in order to put my faith into any religion. Some people have an easier time putting their faith into something that may or may not exist. I have such mixed feelings about George Bush, sometimes I think he has his heart in the right place and is trying to do what he thinks is truly right, and then other times I totally disagree with his decisions. He is just a man, a christian man with strong beliefs, but just a man.

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.
-- George W Bush, according to Palestinian Prime Minister Mahmoud Abbas, from minutes acquired by Haaretz from cease-fire negotiations between Abbas and faction leaders from the Hamas, Islamic Jihad and the Popular and Democratic Fronts (circa June, 2003), quoted from Arnon Regular, "'Road map is a life saver for us,' PM Abbas tells Hamas" (Haaretz.com:June 27, 2003), quoted from EvilOz (The Iterative Record)
The Jesus camp film is a documentary, the place is real the people in it are not actors and yes all the things in the movie are quite real. "Christians" as a whole may not worship Bush, but there are plenty of people who define themselves as Christians who revere him in a way that is religious.

I hope Our President takes orders from God. I believe he is a Christian and prays, but he has a lot of advisers, so I don't know that God told him to liberate Iraq. I do believe he is the most persecuted man on earth. Christians should pray for him daily. God bless George Bush. I want to see that movie, but Hollywood wouldn't have made the movie unless it would fit their agenda.

Prophesy says God will stir up the Medes and Persians,
(Iran). And they will form an alliance with Libya and Ethiopia.
I don't believe God would stir up war. But might cause something
to happen that will exite others to war.
I feel we were given an opportunity to reach out to the people inthe Middle East, in Iraq. But we screwed it up!

No that is silly! And I've never heard him claim to get "orders from God either". He probably believes that he considers what God wants before he takes any actions but not that God is "talking to him" directly or anything. Most of the leaders that think God is "talking to them" in some way are scary and want to kill everyone (can you say Osama).

I'm pretty sure that rumor about Bush claiming God told him to invade the middle east wasn't true.

If Christians believe Jesus is son of God, Bush is son of devil.

are you able to factor to the sources the place Bush and Obama mentioned that? i'm no longer asserting i do no longer think you, yet i'd want to verify those costs in context with something of their reaction.

i say solve the problems in the country first. crimes are going up, murders up, divorce rate is up, lack of morals and values up, fraud and stealing up, family structure down, loosing jobs up. what example of democracy are we giving to the middle east if we still have tons of problems ourselves? feed the hunger of America instead.
