fortunatly, i think you over state the influence of LeHay and this crowd on Bush.
Look at the Bob Jones III article again...it's him threatening because he's not getting the payback he wants. Social Security could not matter less to these folks, but that's what Bush wants to do. Evangelic for the election, realist for the second term.
but yes...i tend to agree that pre-millenial dispensationalism (the fancy ass title for what these folks are preaching about rapture) is a dangerous theology. it is dismissed by most of the mainlines, and is a very recent novelty as far as theologies go.
