"God told me to strike at al-Qaida and I struck them, and then He instructed me to strike at Saddam, which I did, and now I am determined to solve the problem in the Middle East."

Man, this is why I don't like CNN, Fox News, or even BBC News any more. These kinds of (IMO) very disturbing stories just don't get the attention they deserve.
What's worse is that I can picture a lot of my fellow Americans reading this story, nodding in approval, and turning to the next page.
To answer the topic question, however: I can't expect a President to change his religious views to suit political philosphy. However, if he has extreme religious views (as some say Bush does) than I believe it is important to the State that he follows the will of the people with regards to how their religious beliefs affect political change. He (or she) should not enforce ideology specific to his religious leanings; rather, go to church on Sunday, pray before a meal, and whatever other innocuous tasks there may be. I don't like all this business of altering federal websites to reflect the "philosophy" of the administration. Perhaps it's constituent pandering--but has any other president in recent memory gone to such lengths? Sure, perhaps they have suppressed sensitive information in the interest of national security, but changing documents already made public raises my hackles.
