God Among the Democrats and Republicans


From The American Spectator-

The Republicans also had prayers from an Episcopal priest who pastors George H.W. Bush's Houston congregation and who comes from the dwindling conservative side of that denomination. He also liked the Declaration of Independence: "We thank you for guiding our nation's founders who secured the inalienable rights that you bestow upon us: life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness." And he appeared to be an American Exceptionalist: "May America continue to be a light unto all the nations, enabling those who lead us to make dreams, hopes and aspirations of all Americans into realities, and to make the American ideal a certainty not just for some, but for all."

Plus he honored the military: "May we never forget that our freedoms have been won with the blood and the sacrifice of our patriots, always remember that our industry and innovation has been forged with the sweat and toil of American men and women, always believe that houses of worship and places of service are born of the fruit of your inspiration, the desire to honor and serve others, and may we never forget that we are at our best when we know in our hearts that we are not just one nation, but one nation under God."
