Question about Bush* voter "morals" that were supposedly voted for.
Has anybody who voted for B* because of his supposed religion-morals-whatever-the-fuck-they-see-in-this-clown, pondered that maybe putting nuclear weapons in the hands of someone who might wake up one day thinking "God told me to nuke China" is not such a good idea?

All religion aside, why did Bush voters put someone who relies on God for the tough decisions in charge of the world's biggest economy and best equipped military? Gods tell people to invade countries. Gods never tell people to take that money that was going to be used to invade a country and use it to provide better education to your own people instead.

Why is that do you suppose?

1. Those "morals" numbers came from the exit polls...

...which were supposedly wrong about Kerry's victory. Can't have it both ways.

2. My theory is that those who voted for Bush is that ...
(and I could be off the mark )Their version of God is a vengeful god, and in such, they have to spend all of their time smiting "disbelievers" and preaching to those who do not want to hear it. Education, Economy, all of the other things that can actually help people, and if they thought about it, may even get more conversions than violence -- well that's in God's hands, he'll take care of that stuff.

Not realizing that this administration 1)doesn't give a rats ass about religion and if it's going to get them numbers, then so be it....

and, or

2) "God" is actually talking to GW. And it could very well be both. I really do think he believe that he is doing this in the Lord's interest.

But, see when you have $$$ and God talks with you, that means you are eccentric, a savior, a "crusader" as he so put it. But when you have no money, and God talks with you, see a doctor...Quick.


I never said this would make sense, because it sure doesn't.
