PRESIDENT BUSH APPARENTLY ALREADY KNEW HE WAS SENT BY GOD MANY MANY YEARS AGO.
ON HIS INAUGARATION AS GOVERNOR OF TEXAS HE IMPLIED AS MUCH:

ON A MISSION FROM GOD


To our regret, we missed "The Jesus Factor," which knocked a friend of ours out of his chair the other night. But not to worry: "Frontline" says the whole thing will be posted Saturday online.

Here's a taste: "On the day that George W. Bush was sworn into his second term as governor of Texas, friend and adviser Dr. Richard Land recalls Bush making an unexpected pronouncement.

"The day he was inaugurated there were several of us who met with him at the governor's mansion," says Land, president of the Southern Baptist Convention's Ethics & Religious Liberty Commission. "And among the things he said to us was, 'I believe that God wants me to be president.'"

Now, we've all heard about the little "expletive deleted"er's mission from God before. But seeing it documented -- with items like his official Texas "Jesus Day" Proclamation -- is like being catapulted into an adjacent universe, we're told. So don't forget your seatbelt.

1. A hunchbacked toad-being appeared before Barbara Bush
to annunciate her immaculate conception 58 years ago.

3. Not only that, but
he knew the country was going to need him, because "something" was going to happen:

"Bush said to James Robinson: 'I feel like God wants me to run for President. I can't explain it, but I sense my country is going to need me. Something is going to happen... I know it won't be easy on me or my family, but God wants me to do it.'"

4. God help us!
More from your article:

"Behind Bush were two banners. 'King of Kings', proclaimed one. 'Lord of Lords', said the other. The symbolism of how fervent Christianity has become deeply entwined with the most powerful man on the planet could not have been stronger.

Few US Presidents have been as openly religious as Bush. Now a new book has lifted the lid on how deep those Christian convictions run. It will stir up controversy at a time when the administration is keen to portray its 'war on terror' as non-religious."

The man is truly insane!

6. General William Boykin said Bush was appointed by divine intervention
http://www.progressive.org/webex03/wx1020a03.html

He acknowledges that Bush didn't win the popular vote and he says that Bush's appointment is a sign that God wanted him to be President:

"...The majority of Americans did not vote for him"

"Why is he there? … Because God put him there for a time such as this."

8. General Boykin, a PNACer,
is the one making rounds to the RW "end-timer" churches spewing this stuff and they believe every word of it.
