To be honest, I've only met a very small handful of true Christians during my lifetime (meaning people who truly follow Christ's teachings), and Bush is about as far from that as one can possibly be.

A) Some Christians believe that George W. Bush is the next best thing to Jesus Christ himself--or at least he is God's messenger on earth, carrying out God's program.
B) Some Christians believe he is a sincere Christian but an incompetent, bumbling President.
C) Some Christians believe he is a wolf in sheep's clothing, a false Christian propped up to dupe believers into supporting him.
D) Some Christians believe he is the Antichrist, or an antichrist.
I, a Christian, do not subscribe to the first description. I'm not sure whether he's B, C, or D.

Christians consider those Christians who happen to do things they like to be "good Christians" or "real Christians". Christians consider Christians who happen to do things they don't like to be "bad Christians" or "not really Christian".
For example, most Christians, even ones that aren't Catholic, consider Mother Teresa to be a real Christian or a good Christian because they like the things they're told she did. The same Christians don't consider Hitler a real Christian because they don't like him.
That way, they don't have to admit that Christians do really bad things. If you take out all the Christians who do bad things and say they're not really Christians, you can then claim that most Christians are good people. It's a way of stacking the statistics.
It's the same for all other religions.

I hope not about Bush. I don't see how he is a good one. I don't consider terrorists or Bin Laden Muslims either.

Well if you're a Christian it should be about the relationship not hte religion.. so I don't know what is relationship with God is like so I cannot judge his stance as a Christian..and i'm not supposed to judge other people in the first place..

I do not consider one who sends innocent men and women to attack an unprovoking nation a good Christian. No, as much as Bush likes to think of himself as one, he most certainly is not. My grandmother (God rest her soul) was a good Christian and she thought Bush was the anti-Christ. If this war brings forth armageddon, then her accusation could be accurate. Bush started the war...the war starts the end of days...through the transitive property, Bush starts the end of days. Simple as that.

I consider George W. Bush to be the President of the United States.
The other stuff is between him and God.

No, Bush Jr is not a Christian, he does the opposite of what Jesus said to do.

President George W. Bush is our political leader.
His relationship with Jesus Christ is TOTALLY between him and Jesus Christ. I can not judge his heart.
President Bush promised to keep us safe after 911. So far, no other incidents on our soil, so he has lived up to his promise. He has kept his word to the American people.
