I would like to apologize if I offended you in any way. It was not my intention to inject religion into this discussion and I did not and do not believe that Bush is in any way satanic, nor evil. He is an ordinary man as blessed and fallible as any of us.

What I was trying to convey was my concern that some had figuratively elevated the President beyond that status, to the point where they are reluctant to question his judgment, or his speech. No elected official should ever be so elevated; they serve the people, are empowered by the people, and must listen to and obey the will of the people. If the facts of this case support this administration then it is incumbent on them to clearly and convincingly place those facts before us. Otherwise this decision should be questioned, investigated, and reviewed, and such corrective action taken so as to ensure that these mistakes are not repeated.

I agree completely with your second paragraph. I don't know anyone who disagrees, to tell you the truth....

But I very much appreciate your apology. As a Christian I took great offense by your words, and I appreciate your taking them back. Those of us who pray for the President know, perhaps better than anyone else, that he is dependent on the Lord completely for the very reasons you state..........that he is sinful, and prone to error, as much as any human being...........perhaps more because of his position.

That's why I pray so hard for him. Not because I think he's perfect, but because I know he's not.

Thank you, ARCADIA.
