"Bush is trying to turn this country into some kind of military theocracy," said Berkey, who is president of the NYU Atheists club.

I am surprised there are any Republicans who go to NYU. I hope they wear protective gear! ;-)

They should kiss every GOP arse that shows up. Never in the history of this country has the so called "conservative party" furthered more socialist ideals and expanded government so much as this present crop of phoney conservatives.
