Bush is always right
the outcome (believing you're always right) is undisputed... the analysis (born-again) makes sense... however, i've learned over many years that attempting to apply rational thinking to irrational behavior is often a sure recipe for a major headache...
for me, the essence of true spirituality (as opposed to religiosity), does indeed lead to a major simplification of life's choices... i do not believe, however, in abdicating the ability to think for ourselves or in relinquishing the authorship of our own lives to a body of external authority that is often promulgated by those who are either self-serving or who are speaking from a flawed perspective... i do not believe that was jesus' message and i certainly don't believe that there is anything in his message that condones war, intolerance, or hate...

George W. Bush is simply "right." And I mean "simply." Maintaining simplicity has been George's salvation. After years of quiet desperation, a rich frat boy, a certifiable putz and a drunk Bush was "saved." Until that moment, life's plethora of choices, conflicting options, moral and personal issues overwhelmed poor young George. Then someone turned him on to Jesus... the one-stop, one-track, one-size-fits-all solution. For young George, the Bible became his life's owner's manual.
Suddenly life's complications, choices and confusions were culled down to a handful of easy-to-understand instructions. Life's once-intimidating blank canvas was transformed to a paint-by-numbers set. He now not only knew what the picture was, but all he had to do was not mix his colors to end up with a perfect painting every time.
