This is mind-boggling stupid. Bush’s political agenda reminds me of Christ’s warning to be on the lookout for those who are wolves masquerading in sheep’s clothing. Jesus also told us that, “by their fruits you shall know them”. So, judge El Presidente by his political “fruits” and then tell me again, my evangelical brothers and sisters, why he has your support?

I believe that biblical Christians need to see more clearly the differences between professed spiritual beliefs and documented exercise of temporal power. I suspect that Bill Clinton (or Hillary Clinton, if she is elected) wouldn’t have been given the latitude by the American Christian community that Bush currently receives to promote his unconstitutional agenda, including “rolling back” the concept of the American nation-state for which patriots have bled and died since 1776.

I think I’m getting a little tin-foily here, but I think that lame-duck Bush cares only about the business special interests at this point. He doesn’t strike me as a man who cares about his legacy in office because he comes from a family and background which considers political power an entitlement, in my opinion. I don’t think his ego is invested in this office as was Clinton (who had something to prove). It it too way-out to believe that he was in there to do one job–help business special interests dependent on government largess and loosening of certain regulations like border control? If he accomplishes that job, why should he care about his legacy with the little people?

Why should he care whether or not he enrages us ordinary folk? He doesn’t need us anymore. [Isn’t this the case with most duopoly politicians, once in office?]

It seems to me that they aren’t having that much trouble geting in the country. Maybe we’re going to start furnishing them Greyhound buses and free lunches at Cracker Barrel.

to me, this is more proof that we are heading for a North American Union. Bush is a follower of Agenda 21 and it’s global “commmunity.” In fact, many cities in the U.S. are putting in rail lines in an effort to force us out of our cars to limit our mobility. This is under the guise of carbon-inducing “global warming,” and for the benefit of the “working poor.” Transit villages will then be set up around these rail stations, which will include housing, corporate retail outlets like Starbucks, and government controlled medical care. Under the Agenda 21 plan, the transit villages will eventually spread out to become “city villages,” all corporately owned and connected by the vast network of rail lines, some of which will be owned by foriegn corporations.
This is where our country is really heading, right under our noses, with nary a protest. And if you do protest, Big Business will use claims of “racism” saying that you don’t care about the working poor, and “self-centeredness” saying that you don’t care about global warming, to shut you down.
This crap is on the books and being implented without our permission in cities like Dallas, San Francisco, Denver and L.A..
And remember, it’s for our own good!

Now, what country did you say Bush was president of again? Sounds like we’re being sold out. Wonder what he’s been promised in return.
