Anyone see a problem with the following:

Bush:  God told me to go to war (10s of thousands killed)
bin Laden:  Allah told me to wage a war against the infidels (thousands die)
Yates:  God told me to do it (kills 5 children)

Bush:  did the right thing
bin Laden:  "he's a religious fanatic," wanted dead or alive
Yates:  "she's insane, nobody hears voices," life in prison

What's the difference?  God/Allah tells you to kill people should = wrong,
period!
