If Bush thinks Muslims and Christians marry the same God then does he think Muslims think Jesus Christ was God in the flesh? Does he think Muslims believe that Jesus Christ is their Lord and Savior? Jesus is God. Muslims do not believe this. Does Bush not believe Jesus is God? Bush could have answered this way:

"No. Christians worship the Lord Jesus Christ as God. They pray to Him. Muslims do not believe Jesus Christ is God and pray to a god they call Allah. But in America we do not discriminate against those who do not worship Jesus Christ. Nor should Muslims discriminate against those who worship Jesus Christ. He had a chance to stand up for religious freedom but instead foolishly pandered to those who think we all worship the same God. He is not going to be helped by this remark. The Muslims know we don't worship the same God. Christians know we don't worship the same God. So the only one he placates are liberals who won't vote for him anyway. Liberals think, if they think there is a God, that God doesn't care what we believe about Him as long as we believe He exists. That's the kind of god they want - a god who doesn't make commandments nor expect us all to believe the same way about Him. In fact, they want a god who says "anything goes" in terms of your beliefs as long as you believe I exist. That's not the kind of God Christians believe exists. Nor is that the kind of god Muslims believe exists.
