"Some Americans may worry about an evangelical crusader controlling
the world's biggest nuclear arsenal, but religion - even the
fundamentalist variety - is generally considered a good thing in the
U.S. Certainly, focusing on religion helps keep attention away from
other more contentious motives for invading Iraq, such as oil or world
domination. So the media have been hyping Bush's alleged spirituality
(including a Newsweek cover story on "Bush and God"), even as the
president snubbed pleas for peace from world religious leaders and
last week tested a 21,000-pound bomb in preparation for unloading it
on people in Iraq. (Blessed are the bombed children.) Of course, it's
possible that Bush is deeply religious, whatever than means. More
likely, Bush is simply an empty vessel, a hollow shell, a person of
weak character and limited life experience who is therefore highly
susceptible to the control of a small, determined group of ideological
hard-liners bent on asserting U.S. power more forcefully in the world.
