It seems more likely to me that Chirac would lie than that GWB would use such language to him.

This is Sullivan channeling that crazy in West Virginia.

It's awkward to say openly, but now-departed President Bush is a religious crackpot, an ex-drunk of small intellect who "got saved." He never should have been entrusted with power to start wars.

If GW wanted to “erase” the enemies of “his people,” (presumably the Jews) he had much more effective means at his control than pleading for support from France.

The way I heard it George Bush only dialed the number;
it was Sara Palin who did most of the talking.

So he took info as gospel from here:

http://www.secularhumanism.org/index.php?section=library&page=haught_29_5

to talk about in the Atlantic?

That’s some good reporting there. No wonder mags and papers are tanking.

Posting hearsay as an open question is not journalism, Andrew? The reason it is most likely not true is that any mature individual in Bush’s position can envision an Andrew Sullivan at some later date making hay off of such an encounter and would defer to more diplomatic language based on just that.

It’s funny how Sullivan is willing to print this but leaves the open secret about John Edward’s baby Momma to the National Equirer when virtually everyone knew the truth. Lame Lame Lame...Andrew never disappoints.

I say B as in B., S as in S.

There is no evidence that GW Bush believes that the Land Of Israel is anything special to his Christian faith.

This is leftist fantasy unrelated to any verified reality.

Is this true? I haven't seen it denied and it's barely been reported stateside.

Most likely it hasn't been reported stateside because it's BS. So much of political discourse these days depends on baseless rumors and conspiracy theories - and Andrew Sullivan is one of the generators.

of small intellect

I didn’t know Yale accepted people of small intellect. But, of course, looking at the Senate and Congress lately, I can see where most colleges do accept people of small intellect and we elected them!Oh, did we ever get Obama’s grades in college?

Chirac is a crook as well as a liar. Andrew is a rabid homosexual who has been obviously affected by his virus.
