ETC: Everyday Thoughts Collected: Bush Not Praying Enough

    That’s so true, Randy: legalism always tends to appear inhuman, somehow separated from regular folks. In this day and age, with consumers holding more cards in the private sector, one would hope that there would be a similar shift in public matters. Yet the institutions are slow to shift …
       Satire aside, it’s refreshing to see a president comfortable with his religion. So many other politicians give the impression they are faking it, and I refer to some of those when on the campaign trail.

    When they are on the campaign trail or when you are on the campaign trail?

    Oh, sorry: when they are on the campaign trail! I did form a political party years ago but by the time they were ready to contest an election (2005) I had moved on.

    That's very interesting. There are times, even recently (like yesterday) that the Republicans and Democrats here leave me feeling so absolutely hopeless for our government.

    If you lived here we could start the Persuader party :).
