Well well, buddy.
  You must have forgotten George Dubya Bush. He was some kind of born-again Christian. He said God told him to attack Iraq. How much more bizarre can you get?
  You see why we need to finish the revolution that started in the 1960's. Because when miscreants like Ronald Reagan, all the fanatic religious evangelists like Jerry Falwell and the Moral Majority,  Brian Mulroney in Canada, attacked everything the boomers accomplished in the 60's and 70's, most of them were married and unfortunately did not fight back. Generation X was too timid to carry on with the move towards democracy, equality, inclusiveness, and an economy that works for all.
   Thus all the elitist institutions and corrupted dysfunctional democracy we are burdened with today in North America, with all its religious divisions causing so much trouble, drifting ever further to the right wing where militarism, corporatism, fascism, and religion march in lock step keeping the people down.
