Angry Bush asks radio and televangelists to spread the word

Text of Bush Remarks from Nashville, Tenn., on Feb. 10, 2003.

Quote:
For more than 80 years, America's religious broadcasters have been sharing the gospel on the airwaves. You bring words of truth and comfort and encouragement into millions of homes. Broadcasting is more than a job for you, it is a great commission. You serve with all your heart and soul, and America's grateful.
.....

Quote:
And today I ask our religious broadcasters, those who reach into every corner of America to rally the Armies of Compassion so that we can change America one heart, one soul at a time.

(APPLAUSE)
.....

Quote:
The role of government is limited because government cannot put hope in people's hearts or a sense of purpose in people's lives. That happens when someone puts an arm around a neighbor and says, "God loves you. I love you. And you can count on us both."

(APPLAUSE)
I don't know what to add to that, so I'll just let the words stand on their own.

That's wonderful. Just yesterday I heard the local Milwaukee "religious broadcaster" refer to Democrats en masse as "baby killers and sodomite-lovers," and that was from the daughter of the owner of the radio station (which happens to be tax exempt under 501(c)(3)).

No wonder Bush is encouraging them.

That's funny because this "baby killer and sodomite-lover" only votes Democrate because the jesus fuck-heads have taken over the Republican party.
