Raymond > I get absolutely incensed that George Bush has the gall to say that he hopes to spread "democracy" across the globe. It's a vicious and cruel lie to the hundreds of millions of innocent people who have been the victims of the U.S.'s high handed and completely unfair foreign policies.

>>>And he's a Believer. Bush believes what they tell him he believes, such as he was chosen by God to lead the Christians in a righteous war against Islam. Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia even blames God for his own deadly vote that thwarted democracy in 2000 and seized power from the people. Believing that Bush is serving by divine appointment, Scalia wrote in a May 2002 article, God's Justice and Ours that the government has a higher authority granted to it by God. He said unequivocally, "Government carries the sword as the minister of God, to execute wrath upon the evildoer..."

Much of Scalia's, and therefore Bush's, belief is based on, and his core speeches drawn from, the 13th Chapter of Romans, which admonishes citizens to "obey the government, for God is the one who has put it there." Punishment is swift and sure for those who refuse to "obey" the laws of the land, for the scripture says, "the policeman is sent by God to help you.
