What makes you assume President Bush has *not* breathed prayer heavenward? What makes you assume he has not been in contact somehow with key Amish folk?
Lets not forget that many Amish districts in PA & OH had 100% voter turnout to support Bush in the last election. That is "100%". They do not need to feel exploited.
BTW - The Amish detest grandstanding. They do not attend summits, nor watch them on TV. They do respect honest people that show up to meet them in person and offer condolences. Without a media crew.
