2. Maybe if the phrase was, "God judge us with mercy......"
maybe people would think about the consequences of our actions.

6. No, presidents are supposed to take proper actions,
support fair policies, take responsibility and try America better - not rely on God and hope He does it.

4. If God really blessed America
It wouldn't beseige us with plagues of w's. Or maybe this is a test, like with Job?

7. Why isn't it "God Bless the World" Don't we give a shit about anyone
Edited on Fri Apr-09-04 03:22 PM by Zinfandel
else on this planet? Are we so full of ourselves that we believe we are different and special and deserve better than everyone else on the planet?

No, it's a way for Bush and republicans to alienate us from the rest of the world. Us against them mentality...so they can continue to rob us blind in the name of terrorism and fear...

It's like those stupid little flag pins on the lapels...does that mean they are more patriotic than me simply because of some silly pin they where? That's what they want everyone to believe.

Talk about wearing the flag on your sleeve for personal gain.

"God Bless the Whole World"

10. I'll let my little quote at the bottom
and the fact I'm not American let you work out my feelings on this one. I don't lose sleep over it however - if there is a God, I'm pretty sure he'll judge Bush appropriately.

WWJD ? Isn't Bush supposed to be a born againer ? I can't see the Jesus of the gospels making quite the same choices as Bush, but then again, I can hardly see Bush overturning the tables of the moneychangers either. He'd be tapping them for a campaign contribution.

11. The more Satanic a Phony is, the more they call on God
Bush is just doing the work of his Master, the Prince of Lies.

I might add that Revelations correctly foretold that the AntiChrist would fool everyone into believing he was a Pious Man.

15. Always have a copy of Mark Twain's...
War Prayer handy:

http://www.libertystory.net/LSDOCTWAINWARPRAYER.htm

(read the entire Twain story at the link-- it's Twain at his bitterest best)

"O Lord our Father, our young patriots, idols of our hearts, go forth to battle -- be Thou near them! With them -- in spirit -- we also go forth from the sweet peace of our beloved firesides to smite the foe. O Lord our God, help us to tear their soldiers to bloody shreds with our shells; help us to cover their smiling fields with the pale forms of their patriot dead; help us to drown the thunder of the guns with the shrieks of their wounded, writhing in pain; help us to lay waste their humble homes with a hurricane of fire; help us to wring the hearts of their unoffending widows with unavailing grief; help us to turn them out roofless with little children to wander unfriended the wastes of their desolated land in rags and hunger and thirst, sports of the sun flames of summer and the icy winds of winter, broken in spirit, worn with travail, imploring Thee for the refuge of the grave and denied it -- for our sakes who adore Thee, Lord, blast their hopes, blight their lives, protract their bitter pilgrimage, make heavy their steps, water their way with their tears, stain the white snow with the blood of their wounded feet! We ask it, in the spirit of love, of Him Who is the Source of Love, and Who is the ever-faithful refuge and friend of all that are sore beset and seek His aid with humble and contrite hearts. Amen"
