The Crucifixion of Christ, American Style

This is thought-provoking.
"Vice President Dick Cheney, appearing with former Georgia Senator Zell Miller before a uniformed military audience in Texas, suggested that Jesus’ 'love your enemy' message was a thinly veiled liberal euphemism that meant Christ wants to cut the defense budget and reduce the federal funding for the body armor badly needed by our brave young men and women in harm’s way.
'Let he without sin cast the first spitball,' Cheney mocked, to a standing ovation from the troops."

And it has Dubya's amendment of the Prayer:
"And never forgive the terrorists, who trespass against us.
And lead us not into appeasement,
and deliver the U.S. from evil.
Amen."

There's a lot in this that bears a lot of further reflection. Commended
