BBC headline: "Bush God comments 'not literal' "


"A Palestinian official who said the US president had claimed God told him to invade Iraq and Afghanistan says he did not take George Bush's words literally."

What George Bush said: "God would tell me, George, go and fight those terrorists in Afghanistan. And I did, and then God would tell me, George, go and end the tyranny in Iraq... And I did. And now, again, I feel God's words coming to me, Go get the Palestinians their state and get the Israelis their security, and get peace in the Middle East. And by God I'm gonna do it."

I have this fantasy that a literally white-bearded, robe-flowing God says to George Bush: "You are literally an awful president: that is, your incompetence is so vast that it is awe-inspiring -- i.e. 'awful.' You are a coward. You should be ashamed of yourself, but I know you won't be. Don't you ever again invoke My Name to justify and authenticate a military invasion of another country. Don't you dare."
