Dear god - a plea- don't let this thing happen -
This can't be taken back - this thing cannot be put back into a bottle.

If you are the ultimate voice of this asshole - then give it to him straight.

If he does this anyway - I will assume he is an anti-christ - cause I know - in my Christian upbringing - you would never do this to us.

I read the gospels - I believe in them - clearly, this guy did not.

Stop it!!!

You are god- you can do anything. This invasion happens - it is over for us - on so many levels - we are America - we have done the right thing so many times - give us that break we are due.

5. That son of a bitch he is gonna do it -
You son of a bitch - Mr asshole -

He is going to do us - lite us up - Just resign - I would respect that - this is over your head - admit it. No dishonor.

Don't do this thing. These guys held off, against all odds to avoid it - don't do it man!!

No putting the genie back here - stop it. Stop it. Stop it.

The day those people cross that border - it is over. Don't let this happen. I predicted you would and prayed you wouldn't -you know that??

Even in my mind - I prayed you would be reasonable enough not to commmit here.

Come on man - this ain't our fight.

30. Bush also thinks he's talking to "god" -- will we blame "god" if this happens --- ????
It seems to me that we're not failing in sentiment -- but in action -- me included!!!!

9. I will - you know why??
Cause we earned this one - the hard way.

I have taken all those comparative religiion classses and all that - crisis of faith - blah, blah, blah - In the end - I ended up Christian, just the way I started. Not because of any church - in spite of them.

I determined - christianity is not a church - it is a state of mind, it is the way you live your life - churches can go to hell - they sold real christianity out a long time ago.

It is really that thing he said - what do you do to the least of your brothers - it really really is. That is what christianity really means in the end. The rest is pompus bullshit.

27. You are right Joe...religion is a state of mind
I had this discussion this week and was told, "that people need to go to church to hear the word"! And I promptly said my faith is not in a man standing in a pulpit...my faith is insomething or someone that is more than man can conceive....and the response I got.....crickets....

6. If we really let this happen - how much is our fault in this??
We better goddamn try here - cause this SOB - he is going to do us. I go over this cliff - he is going with me - tell you that. Personally, I don't want to go over the cliff. I'd like to see him in tar and feathers.

Makes sense now though.

17. At first I took you seriously - I believe people when I have
no reason not to.

Now I do - you don't want to repeat that do you??

I realize I type faster than I think - and I don't type well to begin with.

You don't to try that, do you??

8. Hate to break it, but God isn't in the White House, and we won't invade Iran.
We haven't the troops necessary to occupy such a country of that size, but with the B-52s and B-2 bombers in Diego Garcia, we have the ability to reduce Iran's infrastructure to rubble, however.

25. You worry about a war of choice -
In truth - there really are no wars of choice, except as this asshole defines them - don't worry about the war he may want - worry about the one that may get get shoved down your throat.

28. I fail to see the relevance to my position.
A war now would be a disaster regardless of how it plays out. Even if such a war turns out to be a cake-walk, I wouldn't support it on principle because it's not a valid self-defense argument. To paraphrase the late Maj. Gen. Smedley Butler, the only wars that should be fought are ones fought to defend the Bill of Rights and ones to defend from invasion of home soil. Anything else is just a money-making racket.

Better be a god -

19. Sorry
I was agreeing with Nadin that counting on God is silly.

Frankly, you've been predicting a calamity for months now - I think you should start to reconsider.

22. Don't be sorry - I could be wrong -
The calamity that may start next week or so- it started a long time ago.

Like a fuse - you have to guess how long it takes to ignite.

Nothing makes me right - I am just a history student right now. Isn't it??

26. Religious talk?
You know the most religious person you will ever meet is the guy getting shot at??

It is true -

Doesn't matter the religion you know.

I am probably too pesimistic -maybe. Hopefully.

20. Flame me for this but I gave up on God watching over this country seven years ago.
I said to myself, God does not watch over this country. Because how could He have ever let this monster steal two elections. How could He let him be in charge of a human rescue effort like Katrina. How could He let him take health insurance away from little children, take after food from children, take after the effort to pay for heat for the poor and needy.

Hell no God is not here any more, else he would never ever have let bush be in office much less stay for two terms. He has abandoned this country and given it over to satan.

21. The reality is that God takes no sides in human history
if he\she\it did take sides, explain things like the Holocaust, or the last seven years...

24. God left a few thousand years ago.
He/She/It/ got disgusted with the flawed creation & moved to another part of the Universe.
