At the National Prayer Service today Bill Graham, the man who is said to have converted Bush to fervent Christianity, said this:
Offering one prayer, the Rev. Billy Graham said he believed God had a hand in Bush's re-election.
"Their next four years are hidden from us, but they are not hidden from you," said the 86-year-old evangelist, whom Bush credits with inspiring him to reaffirm his faith and give up drinking at age 40. "You know the challenges and opportunities they will face. Give them a clear mind, a warm heart, calmness in the midst of turmoil, reassurance in times of discouragement and your presence always."
So God had a hand in Bush's re-election! I wonder what form that took. Perhaps meddling with the voting machines? But that's blasphemy! Naughty me.
But apparently not naughty Bill Graham.
I feel like we are all sitting in a train driven by some lunatic who doesn't know how to stop the damn thing.
