I am going to have to agree. Grandstanding and casually invoking God's name and/or blessing is just PR fluff, and it runs like water on a duck's back to most people's ears. Also, it sounds good. It is completely different from claiming to have access to a divine power's intuition.
But Bill Clinton never said that God told him to bomb that aspirin factory. Ronald Reagan never said that he was on a mission from God to destroy those heathen, pagan, infidel communists. It's a completely different order of magnitude.
