One wonders why Dick Cheney and the other cabinet members don't stop this stuff? Maybe they know that it's a political move to show the divide from Kerry? The President Bush who I voted for didn't voice these beliefs. I liked him because he had been in the work force, knew what it meant to be responsible to employees, and knew what it would take for someone to overcome an addiction. I also voted for him because Barbara Bush raised him and Laura Bush has stayed married to him. Both strong women (IMO) AND his pets are not just for show (ala Clinton)... The way he takes care of Max the black scottie endears Pres.Bush to dog lovers.
Mainly I first liked Pres.Bush because he is not a career politician.Thats why people in Texas voted to make him governor twice(very unusual in this state).
OK back to the Christian stuff. OK he's a Christian, many of my best friends are Christians. But being an atheist doesn't mean I'm always right either(well ok maybe most of the time.) Abortion is a part of the Constitution already. Stem cells continue to be researched but not by any facility in the US. But it's going on and the Chinese will undoubtedly be the first to clone a human. Also they will probably be the first to use genetic material to cure diabetes, hogkins and other uncurables. US companies are involved with this research. And if the research and testing and initial patient studies were done in the US there would, at some point be huge law suits for some overlooked effect.
Because President Bush does care about those suffering in North Korea, and he feels he is in a position to deal with this offense, I hope he does. If you ever watch LINK tv you'll see a documentary made in N.Korea about the horrid and YES inhuman suffering.
He isn't crazy. He's a regular guy. He wants to do whatever is the right thing. I believe this about him.
