Oh, right, like they would say it...

White House denies Bush claimed divine inspiration

Right. After years of lying to us about practically everything else, of course they're going to deny it. Although I'm not certain the big guy (God) wants credit for anything the chimp-in-chief is doing. I mean, let's face it, for all we know it's Cheney working the strings, or rather, with his arm crammed up Bush's ass, working the puppet from within. Hell, it could be the flying spaghetti monster piping thoughts into Bush's head for all we know. The only thing that is certain is that when those thoughts arrive, there's an echo.

Still, couldn't you see Bush claiming God told him to do it? I mean, hell, it gives him leave to claim anything under that kind of nonsense.

"I had to go AWOL because God told me to."
"God told me there were WMDs in Iraq. If you can't trust God, who can you trust?"

I think we just ought to change this topic of news to "and now, from the whackjob in chief"

and I quote:

President Bush predicted Friday that Harriet Miers will be confirmed to the Supreme Court despite grumbling from conservatives that has led a few to call for the president to withdraw her nomination. Asked he if would rule out ever seeing Miers' name withdrawn, Bush did not answer directly, substituting instead words of confidence about her confirmation process. "She is going to be on the bench," he said. "She'll be confirmed."

Dear sock-puppet;

It's not up to you. While I doubt that those spineless toads in Congress actually will manage to block Miers appointment, this is not something you should sound so damned certain about.
