Faith-based government initiatives have taken on an entirely new meaning tonight. We have been informed that it is our patriotic and christian (the only state sponsored religion) duty to have faith that Bush and his “team” know what is best for Iraq. Despite what you, your common sense, and the entire world thinks.
Have faith that the evidence will become apparent soon enough for your feeble minds to understand it. Despite the apparent lack of evidence.
Have faith that you are being told the truth, that Iraq is not and will not be disarming, despite the fact that Blix and the rest have only compiled a preliminary report thus far, yet has found no real weapons.
Have faith that the UN and the rest of th world is not seeing “the big picture,” that Saddam hates you all, despite the fact that those countries are saying something rather different for themselves.
Yes, faith is a funny thing. You must maintain it despite sound logic, decency and most of all factual evidence of anything that contradicts faith. This was a much easier thing to do when the father asked for the same type of faith 11 years ago. Don’t you think?
