That's one example, but a weak argument in my opinion for several reasons:

1. I said most Governments are secular, not leaders. The president is a president, not a dictator. Our governments policy is shaped by by thousands of people not just 1 man.

2. Our government is hypothetically a representation of the majority of its people. If the PEOPLE are voting for canidates who's religious beliefs effect their policy that is no fault of the leader but of the voters.

3. It's ludacris for an American administration to be compared to a middle eastern administration in terms of religion. People would flip their shit of Bush came out and said something like "God hates Israel therefore we should destroy it."

I really think people are just bored in this country. Our country is FAR from perfect, I mean shit...But come on. Our leaders, businesses, whatever...They do something wrong and suddenly it's the end of the F'ing world. LOOK AROUND people! Tell me other countries don't have it 10 times as bad. Tell me America isn't in the top of the class. Go over to China and see how things are for a few weeks. That is a purely anti religious government and if their people say something bad about it the government beats the shit out of them and throws them in jail. Go to fucking Iran where stoning someone to death for losing their virginity too early is a considered ok. Go to Mexico, where it's so shitty their people risk their lives to come HERE.

Another thing that pisses me off is when people go "Omg look what America is doing! They are acting in their own self interest and exploiting other countries for personal gain!".........News flash people! Governments aren't exactly moral. EVERY country acts in its own self interest. Personally I recognized the USA does some bad shit, but I'm much more comfortable with us running things right now than I am with a lot of the other contenders.

....I guess I kind of got a little off topic there...But, and no offense UB, people like you have been annoying me lately. It's like people think we have it soooo bad here. It's just like the Christianity thing....Maybe you should look around at what is going on outside of our borders and compare it to inside and suddenly it's not nearly as bad here anymore.

/end rant.
