Someone who I work with claims that Bush said god told him to attack iraq, i cannot find any transcript that says this. Is one of those case that " Iheard him say" with no evidence?

NO.

He said he prayed on it because it was such a big decision. But no, he did not say God told him to attack Iraq.

Of course many liberals will tell you that by praying you are somehow a crazy person so consider where they are coming from.

Actually, God told Bush to beat the Devil out of Iraq.

I can't find anything to that specific effect, s. Doesn't pass the smell test, for me. Sounds like a 'conglomeration' of somone's recollections. Whatever.

With the embedded verb "attack", the comment is disingenuous, and sounds like it from 'rats or the MSM.

The action in Iraq was defensive in nature, since it was in response to what Saddam had been doing/not-doing over the years as well as fighting terrorism within a terrorism magnet that was not on US soil.

If Bush had really said that, the MSM would would mention it every single day. I have heard the myth before. I think Al Queda themselves have even used it for propaganda.

Without a source for skeptical you to double check? Why, it sounds like a fabrication.

Unless your co-worker was present and personally witnessed it.

This is commonly misreported.

Actually, God told him to pick up some milk and a loaf of bread at the store, and then casually mentioned that He thought the war in Iraq sounded like a good idea.

Bush, distracted while writing down his shopping list, misinterpreted God's instructions and wrote down "start war in Iraq!"

Are you clear on this now?

Just tell the Lib they are full of 'macaca' and tell THEM to provide the proof/link that he said it!

God did tell him to attack Iraq because God wanted to really get the democrats upset and show their hating side.

It's a liberal fantasy. They like to portray Bush as stupid. Failing that, they try to imply he's crazy.

It's obvious the Dhimmicrats aren't thinking their strategy through. I mean, would you want to spend all your time insisting that you keep getting your "elite, intellectual" ass beaten by a stupid crazy guy? C'mon...

Even if true, it’s still better than the leftist pigs excuses of that “the gays told me” or “Ted Kennedy told me”. I’ll take God any day!
