Supporting Bush is immoral--reason number 11

He makes a mockery of the teachings of Christ.

Jesus is revered by other major religions, and respected by the non-religious. Christians, whose belief is that Jesus is divine, supposedly follow his teachings in every aspect of their lives. In 2000, when Bush was asked by a debate moderator who his favorite philospher was, he said "Christ. Because he changed my heart."

Bush's so-called conversion occurred in 1985. But in the 19 years since then, he has: executed more people than any governor in the nation, and publicly mocked a woman who was executed in Texas, defrauded numerous investors by committing insider trading, deliberately poisoned the air and water in Texas (and is doing the same thing nationally) in order to fulfill the greed of polluting industries, refused to protect children from lead poisoning, lied in order to blow up a country he wanted destroyed, permitted his various election staffs to run scumbag lie-filled campaigns designed to ruin the reputations of his opponents, and--through the withholding of funds--overseen thousands of deaths of women and children in Africa.

What would Jesus do?
