Just Dubya Being Dubya…

What is wrong with George saying such a thing as this? Nothing:

Mr Shaath said that in a 2003 meeting with Mr Bush, the US president said he was “driven with a mission from God”.”President Bush said to all of us: ‘I’m driven with a mission from God. 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.'” Palestinian leader Mahmoud Abbas, who attended the meeting in June 2003 too, also appears on the documentary series to recount how Mr Bush told him: “I have a moral and religious obligation. So I will get you a Palestinian state.”

If that is what is in his brain, why can’t he put it that way. Consider that its pretty much accepted that he uses such language as a tool of communication and that he pretty much is convinced of its truth. So why can’t he say it – given he doesn’t get voted for again and even if he did the atheists were never lining up to back him in the first place? If we can accept Manny being Manny, can’t we now just accept George, too?
