George W. Bush Jr.

     George Bush Jr. never wanted to be in politics. According to Bush and his staff, he just "Felt the calling" one day to become governor. I'm betting that what he really felt was his fathers old campaign managers telling him that he could win, but that's just a guess. Whatever he "felt", it was a good feeling, because Georgie-boy became governor. 

    While in office as governor, he showed everyone just how "Pro-family" he is. When I say "Pro-family", I of course mean "Pro-heterosexual-Christian-families". He declared June 10th a holiday in Texas. Much to the dismay of Jewish people, Hindu people, an atheists like myself, June 10th is "Jesus day". 

    But enough about his past. Now for the present. Let me share with you the one thing that worries me most; I wouldn't be surprised if he tried to make "Jesus day" a national holiday. The separation of church and state is already a joke. Just look at our currency and read "In God We Trust"... not all of us, buddy... But if Bush gets elected it will become infinitely worse. 

    First off, he will "Provide federal matching funds for the establishment of state offices of faith-based action". Meaning he will be using the tax dollars to pay for government run Christian establishments. It gets better, not only will there be government run establishments for Christian propaganda, but he swears to make the presidency itself an 'Office of Faith-Based Action'. You know all those people who wont make a simple decision without saying "What would Jesus do?" This would mean that we would have one of those people controlling the free world. 

    Ya know what really scares me about this guy? I'll bet he'll wins...
