that shouldn't be crossed, isn't it?

Personally, I can sit back and "respect" his religious beliefs (if indeed he actually has any) but such things as taking the country to war because of them are anathema.

That goes far beyond "belief" and becomes action, and action does not automatically demand respect. In most cases with Shrub, action seems to demand condemnation, no matter what in his miserable little mind justified it.
