THE VIEW FROM THE HILL

 


Lest we forget . . .

"In my administration, we will ask not only what is legal but what is right, not just what the lawyers allow but what the public deserves." - Gov. George W. Bush, October 26, 2000.

"I do solemnly swear that I will faithfully execute the office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States." - George W. Bush, January 20, 2001

During an April, 2005, speech at Buffalo, NY, Mr. Bush made these reassuring remarks about the Constitution and government wiretaps.

"We do not negotiate . . . with terrorists. We put them out of business," said Bush spokesman Scott McClellan about the latest bin Laden audio tape. Dubyuh is really doin' a heckuva job putting this particular terrorist out of business. - 06 01 18

God told me to hate you!

"Some years ago, my income was so low that I was living very close to the financial edge. Nevertheless, I believed..that I should give a significant amount to the Lord's work, so I did. Several weeks later as I was driving my car, God spoke to me, and said, 'Ask Me for something.'"

"I said, 'Lord, I think I have everything I need right now.' He said again, 'Ask Me for something.'"

"'Okay, Lord. Please provide me with one thousand dollars.' I wasn't sure why I mentioned that figure, but it popped into my mind, so I spoke it in my prayer."

In later years his prayers have been adjusted for inflation. Check out the "credentials" of Mr. (Reverend?) Robertson HERE.
