rapture ready

Yes, Georgie finally found a "moral boundary"--he couldn't find one between him and lying or disgracing his uniform or torture or the shredding of a magnificent Constitution, but the moral boundary between him and using a blastocyst that would otherwise be discarded to save lives and ameliorate suffering glowed in his darkness.Speaking of glowing: when he was "elected," I declared that success could be described as Georgie leaving office without launching a nuclear exchange. Six years down, just a little more than 2 years to go...As to the topic I don't think Georgie is a born again Christian and end-times believer. I think he finds all that a convenient political cover to 1) prevent 20 years of drugs, drinking, and general wastrelling from being a political liability and 2) enlist the authentic evangelicals on his behalf. Evangelicals just LOVE the prodigal son mythos.But real evangelicals do not smirk and mock death row conversions as he did in Texas as governor: they may not favor mercy, but they devote considerable effort to prison ministries and consider them as valuable as any other. In this, as in every other activity he has undertaken--soldier, corporate executive, etc.--he is a fraud.
