X42 returning in Air Force 2........NOT going to Crawford.

Dr. Rice going to Crawford...along with the first family.

Aside from Carter, can you think of another President more in need of hearing the Voice of God?

G.W. is a Christian. It is in that context he reaches out to Clinton. Personally I do not believe the Pope would have minded Clinton's attendance. He probably would have welcomed those who are not saved, and there is no question in my mind Clinton is not, with wider arms than those he is aware are Christian.

To the extent Clinton benefits personally from the Message, it is to his favor. To the extent he humiliates himself as he did this past weekend, it harms no one but him. President G.W.B is our Representative and he conducted himself with grace, compassion and humility.

I think they were sitting together. They didn't show much before or after the shot.

"Did you catch the look of death Condi shot at Bubba?"

Hey Condi, have you ever hear the term p**nta&g?

" I think they were sitting together "

The clip I saw was when they were first walking in and Clinton looked and acted euphoric , talking and interacting with everyone, as if he was at a political rally.

JP2 opposed both wars, Desert Storm and Saddam Insane in Iraq. I wouldn't have much to say about JP2 either when he preferred evil to prevail. He's simply being tactful.

JP2 preferred evil to prevail? LOL -stealth anti-Catholic bigotry is not your strong suit.

Me: JP2 opposed both wars, Desert Storm and Saddam Insane in Iraq. I wouldn't have much to say about JP2 either when he preferred evil to prevail. He's simply being tactful.

You:JP2 preferred evil to prevail? LOL -stealth anti-Catholic bigotry is not your strong suit.

Me: Apparently so since NOTHING would have changed if Bush had NOT gone in there. The Iraqi people LOVE Bush for allowing a "just war" to free them from evil, Saddam Insane.

Me:If anything, YOU are the one who is VERY confused.

Yaaaaawwwnnnn, name calling won't change the fact that JP2 was against all wars. If JP2 were around when Hilter reigned, he'd have opposed that and allowed more heinous murders. Hitler was evil and so was Saddam Insane. Either you support evil - letting it continue, or you are AGAINST it and STOP IT.

You can read my response on the appropriately titled other thread you ranted upon. LOL
