I said what I meant to say...that President Bush was touched by God to be President. I believed it with every prayer I said last year. I believed it with the prayer I said when he was sworn into office. I believed it with every prayer I've said for him since that time.

You have the right to think the way you do dood...and I certainly have the right to believe as I do. God has blessed this nation immensely. Those who first came to this nation were certainly not anti-God. Did the founding fathers spit on graves when it was written in our Declaration of Independence:

When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation. We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.
We, therefore, the Representatives of the united States of America, in General Congress, Assembled, appealing to the Supreme Judge of the world for the rectitude of our intentions, do, in the Name, and by Authority of the good People of these Colonies, solemnly publish and declare, That these United Colonies are, and of Right ought to be Free and Independent States; that they are Absolved from all Allegiance to the British Crown, and that all political connection between them and the State of Great Britain, is and ought to be totally dissolved; and that as Free and Independent States, they have full Power to levy War, conclude Peace, contract Alliances, establish Commerce, and to do all other Acts and Things which Independent States may of right do. And for the support of this Declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortunes and our sacred Honor.

The God who gave us life, gave us liberty at the same time.

Indeed, I tremble for my country when I reflect that God is just.

We are fighting for the dignity and happiness of human nature. Glorious it is for the Americans to be called by Providence to this post of honour."
Ben Franklin (1777)

"I must own I have so much faith in the general government of the world by Providence that I can hardly conceive a transaction of such momentous importance to the welfare of millions now existing, and to exist in the posterity of a great nation, should be suffered to pass without being in some degree influenced, guided, and governed by that omnipotent, omnipresent, and beneficent Ruler."
Ben Franklin(1788)

And lastly, the U.S Capitol Prayer Room Window. In this stained-glass window, the kneeling figure between images of the Great Seal is George Washington. Around him is the 16th Psalm's appeal: "Preserve me, O God, for in Thee do I put my trust."
