Maybe We Should Have Surrendered at Ground Zero?

From what we've been told by Congressman Duncan Hunter, Chairman of the Armed Services Committee, our detainees seem to get better "three squares" than most Americans do.
With Hillary believing we (Republicans, who as Dean declares are mostly "White Christians") have no shame about what we're doing and that we've never been acquainted with the truth . . . why shucks, treatment from al-Qaeda would be a welcome respite from her non-stop bashing of half the people in America.
As Hillary states: "Some of us (Republicans) honestly believe we are motivated by the truth; believe we are motivated by a higher calling, and believe we are motivated by a direct line to the heavens."
Oh, just think, Hill and Deano would no longer be able to speak against our religious freedom because religious rights will certainly be a must for detainees -- they're demanding it for themselves, so it makes sense they would demand it for us, too.


I'd love Osama to tell Howie Dean to "hush up" since they insist on "quiet" during their prayer time - they would want that for us. If we make our guards (with their squeaky boots) at Guantanamo walk on painted footprint paths during prayer time so as not to disturb the detainees, there's no doubt in my mind they'd paint a path to a dark hole far away so Howie would surely be quiet during our prayer time.
And anyway, Mr. Dean wouldn't want to associate with us . . . he doesn't look like the rest of us . . . we all look the same, behave the same -- pretty much a "white Christian party."
My dear Americans, all facetiousness aside, we're dying a much slower death for sure, but it's a death nonetheless. We've lost our sense of who we are and we can't find our way.
We've proceeded to thumb our nose at God and then cry out for help.
Every time I hear someone talk about shutting down Guantanamo Bay; it's time to bring our troops home; we need to let the Iraqis fight this war . . . I can only throw up my hands and say: "Maybe we should have surrendered at Ground Zero and we wouldn't have witnessed the self-destruction of the America we once knew.
The American people elected George Bush twice to lead them, yet we still won't let him take charge. Do you think Mr. Bush still listens to God? He's accused of it daily, but if we truly believe he does, how can we argue with the decisions he makes? Are we listening to God -- is He telling us something completely different? Or have we truly prayed about it? Have we prayed for our President?
If we don't lift George Bush up in prayer -- thus causing him to fail -- America loses!
Does anyone truly not believe the hand of God has been on George Bush since he took office? Who amongst you believes God abandoned George Bush to his own thinking? And do we believe George Bush looked into the face of the Almighty and said, "Back off Big Guy, I've got it under control."
