How ridiculous. He'll take a board position at Haliburton, move back to
Crawford and, with the twins all grown up, fall off the wagon and drink
beer
all day.

I could see it, but I'd be leaning toward Lynda's prediction. I think he'll
hit the sawdust trail. The revisionists who think this country was founded
on Christian principles haven't paid attention to the most fascinating
aspects of our history. This country has gone in regular waves of religious
fervor followed by times of apostasy only to start the cycle again. It just
so happens that the 1750's until the 1820's was just such a time of apostasy
and so religion had nearly nothing to do with the founding of the country.
In the 1820's there was the Cain Ridge Revival and two decades of religious
fervor, only to fall into apostasy again in the 1850's. After the War of
Northern Aggression, there was another period of religious revival during
which we acquires "In God We Trust". The late teens through the 30's was a
secular time followed by Bible thumping in the 1950's which gave us "One God
Indivisible". We're due for another great revival and who better to be the
man with God on his side than our man Bush?
