It's a bit long, but it's worth the read.
What it doesn't explain to me maybe the many, many pages of discussion do, but I have to do *some* work), is... OK, if that's the way people think and they see Bush as a Christian man fighting the forces of evil, then I can see why they would vote for him. But what I still don't get is *why* they would see Bush as a good Christian man. Surely not just because he says so. And if it were just based on his actiosn, that would be entirely circular: we support him because he's X, eveen if he does what might seem like bad things, but we think he's X because he does good things... Is it because of who endorses him? I'm still missing something.
