Quote:
Every few months, a report surfaces of the president using strikingly Messianic language, only to be dismissed by the White House. Three months ago, for instance, in a private meeting with Amish farmers in Lancaster County, Pa., Bush was reported to have said, "I trust God speaks through me." In this ongoing game of winks and nods, a White House spokesman denied the president had specifically spoken those words, but noted that "his faith helps him in his service to people."

that kinda scares me we have good reason NOT to have religion in the White House. I would much prefer an aethiest president then anyone else. (not a you should be an aethiest too guy, but more of a I don't give a f__k about god kinda guy). Religion gets in the way of sound fact, and creates a sort of mandate of heaven feel to the whitehouse I don't believe we should have.
