God spoke to Bush?

I found this article, highlighting an upcoming BBC special about Bush and how God told him to do what he has done. Here is the link.

If this is true, I have a few problems with it. First of all, wasn't the reason we wen't into Afghanastan was to hunt and capture Osama BinLaden? Then we went into Iraq because of the weapons of mass destruction they were harboring.

What this means is that either we were lied to about the reasons we are in Iraq,(big surprise) or that Bush is lying to the folks in the Middle East (another big surprise). I seem to remember that Bush suffers from dyslexia and if that is so, well, I 'll keep the cheap jokes to myself.

I am always amazed at the reaching lies I hear. I wish some official would just be honest and say," We are an oil dependant country, and we have occupied Iraq to secure oil reserves for our use."

How would America react if say, China or Russia came in, took the President out of power, and said they were trying to free us. They wanted to help set us up with a communist state, and show us a better and fair way of life. We all would take up arms and defend our country, regardless of political lines.

Why is it so hard for the administration to understand they are not wanted in Iraq. Just because their country and government is run differently, does not mean they want to change it. I am not surprised one bit at the problems that have been run into with the rebellion that is in Iraq.

I have veered off of my original thought, so I will wrap it up before I get way off track.
