Who would you vote for: Jesus or Bush?
Let's not debate it and agree that Jesus and Budha existed. Now cast your vote for President!
I think Budha would be a real relaxed leader....we would worry about issues when they arose, but most of the time, it would all be easy going. |

Jesus or Bush? That's a trick question since we all know they are one and the same

Eh, Jesus supposedly mentioned the word "Love" a few times and occasionally talked of peace, so I'd rather choose him. Plus, he wouldn't take bribes because his last film made so much bank.

I voted Jesus on two major assumptions, that he exists of course, and that he is the classic Jesus that is referred to in the WWJD slogan, and taught about in sunday school...not the bloodthirsty kill-the-sinners revelation Jesus. We already have had a taste of that in the White House. The "nice" Jesus I don't think would be calling for a crusade against different beliefs...hell, he's a respected prophet in islam, so having him as our leader would be a plus probably.
I even think Jesus would be supportive of church-state separation, something that's slowly getting eroded. But alas, he's not here to run for office... |
