Bill Cusack has written a very controversial article that brings into question the relationship between George Bush Jr. and God.
Bill Cusack has written an article that some will cheer and others will despise. Some will call the article as being right on the money and others will call it a cheap shot.
But whatever you may think of the very controversial article, it does make you think. It reminds me of the old "Who" song called "We Won't Get Fooled Again." But yet, perhaps we will be fooled again, and again and yet again.
We could easily be fooled again because whoever seems closer to God seems to be getting a tremendous block vote based on belief and little else. And its not just the Christian Fundamentalists either. In the last election Catholics were told on the Sunday before election day to vote for George Bush Jr., because he was more in sync with "The Vatican" point of view, despite the fact that John Kerry was a Catholic.
Yes, whoever it was that coined the phrase, "Politics Makes Strange Bed Fellows," certainly got that right. After reading Bill Cusak's article, I find it alarming that we may continue to pick our leaders on the basis of religion alone. This nation survived and stayed strong and respected when it enforced a strong policy of seperating Chuch from State.
But now, many in our nation seem "Hell Bent" on abandoning a policy that has made America the greatest nation ever in the history of all the world. And again to quote "The Who," I hope "We Won't Get Fooled Again."
