BUSH AND CHRISTMAS
Recently, most Americans celebrated the birth of Jesus. Over two thirds of Americans claim to be Christians, including George Bush.
What is a Christian? The definition of a Christian is as follows: "One who believes, or professes to believe in Jesus Christ, and the truth as taught by Him; especially, one who’s inward and outward life is conformed to the doctrines of Christ." The disciples were called Christians first in Antioch (Acts 11:26).
Jesus’ teachings involved two commandments: "LOVE GOD, AND LOVE THY NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF." Jesus stated that this was the whole of God’s commands. Jesus advocted love and peace.
George Bush and his supporters advance war. Bush attacked a soverign nation, Iraq, by purposely distorting the nature of its weapons of mass destruction. Bush, on December 12th in Philadelphia, PA, stated he would have attacked Iraq regardless of its weapons of mas destruction. Now over 30,000 innocent Iraqi women and children have been murdered along with nearly 2,500 Americans.
Bush lied about his illegal surveillance of Americans and their communications. Bush authorized a secret Pentagon program for "detecting, identifying and engaging" internal enemies that included a database with information on peace protesters (Bush wants to promote democracy abroad, but limit it here in America). Also, Bush authorized the FBI's use of national security letters to obtain secret access to the personal records of tens of thousands of Americans
It's very ironic that Bush who proudly touts his religious convictions in public, would lie continuously to cover his illegal and immoral actions.
