And the President calls himself a Christian!

Yet another year, yet another Christmas, yet another bland card - the President's 'Christmas' card.

He calls himself a born again Christian; yet he cannot find it within himself to send a real Christmas card. Shame on him, and shame on Laura for not helping him make the right choice! Shame on the White House for not stopping the insanity, too! For insane is what it surely is!

This President, of all presidents, should know what it means to be a Christian, especially at Christmas. He has seen the light, or so he says. But he won't stand by his convictions. This is regrettable indeed; in fact, it is spineless!

This is Christmastide. He should wish his compatriots a VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS, and nothing less.

He has just gone down in my estimation. Big time! Maybe he's afraid of the ACLU (the American Civil Liberties Union). If this is the case, then it makes matters only worse. Maybe the President ought to see this image:

I can think of nothing positive to say about this ludicrous situation. The only thing left for me to say is: Shame! Shame! Shame!

So this disheartening story has made it to the UK too?

As the article points out, for several years our President has not been sending true Christmas greetings. Poor, indeed, for a professed, born again Christian!

I attribute this sacrilege to political correctness. But that's no excuse!

Forrest Shalom,
those who truly know Christ as personal Saviour
would never call islam a religion of peace!

Stupid Christians might. But GWB has no excuse, as far as I'm concerned. He's the President of the United States!

The concept of separation of church and state has been perverted to the concept of separation of religion and elected representatives. Doesn't anyone study unrevisionist history any more?

real christians are not deceived by what he says.
The Right so much wants to believe in GWB that many Christians on the Right are turning a blind eye. I've had many a heated conversation about this with my Christian fellows.

These days, petrodollars speak louder than principles!

Bush sends out thousands of cards, not just to Christians. Most of the Presidents in the last fifteen or so years left out any reference to "Christmas".

Bush's Dad, used Christmas in his four years.

President Bush did include inside the card a psalm:

Psalm 28:7

Maybe he feels that he is in so much crap that he needs to address the "Father" instead of the "Son".

It works for me.
