The Christian's Confusion | Re-Writing Bush - A Tortured History

Dick Cheney appeared on the Charlie Rose Show, February 13, 2013, and reaffirmed his commitment to the American use of torture. Since 2001, many Human Rights and government reports have refuted the Bush administrations assertion that torture (enhanced interrogation) is legal, moral, and useful. However, the former administration and many Americans still claim that torture should be used and that they led to the capture of Bin Laden. This blog (originally published on 5-11-11) does not adress these reports but it does address the problematic belief that George. W. Bush is a "good Christian man."

As a follow up to the Bin Laden Facebook Status Awards, WUW? would like to highlight the most ridiculous of all the Facebook updates concerning Obama, Bush, God and Bin Laden:


"Thank You George Bush"
"God Bless America"
and...
"God Bless George Bush"
