Is Chimpy going to have some sort of religious experience?

Lights in the Old City of Jerusalem will be turned off before dawn this week so visiting US President George W Bush can get a better view of the sun rising over its ancient walls.

Mr Bush, who arrives in the Middle East today for a visit lasting more than a week, had made a request to watch the sun rise over the Old City from his suite at the King David Hotel, a municipal spokesman said on Tuesday.

To make the scene more dramatic, the authorities have decided to turn off the lights illuminating the limestone walls before dawn on Thursday and Friday, the spokesman told reporters.

I dunno, maybe a little chat with God, or an epiphany?

I can always hope.

I have no idea how long he's been gone or when he's coming back, but I almost forgot about him. It was lovely.

9-11, no joke.

That is tacky. Thanks for the info. I wish he'd stay away until January 9th of next year.

protecting him and feel like drunk sociopath. It's as close to a religious experience as he can get.

when all hell breaks loose?

Like many here, I just want a bit of a heads-up on the Rapture thing...I wanna place dibs on some neighbors' stuff.

:evilgrin:

Please God, puhleeez!

i`m sure jesus would disapprove of his presence.

Praiiiiiiiiiissssseeeee.

chance for Chimpy.

Funny story. Our minister (very small liberal Pres. church) had children's chat before the sermon. Everyone said they love it every Sunday because they don't know what's gonna come out of my young son's mouth. He's about the only kid down there, so there is no hiding. Well, they were discussing the Epiphany and how the wise men went to visit Herod. They talked about how Herod was the most horrible King ever because he wanted to kill all the baby boys just to get one. My son was not prompted and I had no idea what the 'chat' was going to be about, but at coffee hour he compared Herod to * and how soldiers have been dying just to get one man.

While I agreed in my heart with my son in my heart, I was highly afraid to walk down out of the balcony and down to coffee hour. No need. Other people were agreeing also.

Awaiting Mr Bush at his King David suite - reportedly costing $US2,600 a night - will be a white bathrobe embroidered with his name in gold, local media have reported.
