God-fearing Americans have gathered to lift up the man whom God has placed in the office of the Pres
I was just browsing and came across this tidbit of wisdom by the Freepers. SCOTUS diden't put Dubya in the WH, God did.

Prayer for President Bush

<<snip>>

We lift up our brother in Christ, George W. Bush to You today, thanking You for the witness of Your love he continues to provide and for the example of repaying good for evil, day after day. We confess that sometimes we wish that he would lash out and give his enemies what they ‘deserve’…..but then we are reminded that vengeance belongs to You, and You alone, and You will repay. We ask that President Bush might be in constant prayer, seeking wise counsel, and in daily study of Your word. Help his thoughts to be Your thoughts, and his heart to be Your heart. Grant him wisdom and discernment in the difficult decisions he must make, and keep him humble before You, knowing that You alone must receive all the glory.

Prayforgeorgewbush.com is a non-denominational, non-partisan ministry dedicated to lifting up President George W. Bush in Prayer as he serves this country as President of the United States. For over four years, God-fearing Americans have gathered to lift up the man whom God has placed in the office of the Presidency (Romans 13:1 "Everyone must submit to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except from God, and those that exist are instituted by God."-HCSB™). During this time of national triumph and tragedy, we have seen God work in marvelous ways in the life our our country and its president.

1. How do these people sqaure their quote:
(Romans 13:1 "Everyone must submit to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except from God, and those that exist are instituted by God."-HCSB™).

the Revolutionary War where the founding fathers fought against the King of England who was also the head of the Church of England?

7. Absolutely...
Bush said so himself in one of his State of the Union speeches. I think he was "corrected" because he never said it again, in public anyway.

6. Will they agree that God Put Edwards in the White House?
Will they pray for Obama if he wins?
Will they see God work through Hillary?

The suspension of disbelief is appalling. They should be wearing skins and drawing on cave walls.

"Oh great Easter Bunny..deliver us from the great Satan of Islam. We know your colored eggs are the only TRUE colored eggs and that your colored eggs will rule triumphant..."

10. No skins. Remember, they were cast out of the garden in their nakedness.
And it's doubtful their kind invented art or had the sense to take shelter in caves either. Some ancient Democrat showed them the way, then they stoned her and took credit for her accomplishments.

8. For these are the Spiritual Descendants of The Witch Burners. Watch your back, George.
As the Christians channel into,
Pontifex Maximus's ever increasing mysterious ways..

the cash conscience Evangelical TV Torch may suddenly spin on,
"Can you spare a dime"....

9. This is the kind of crap that leads to theocracy. It's why Huckster
wants to change the Constitution. People should have no doubt that this is their goal.
