I don't think God is home...

If President Bush is the defender of Christian America and our political representative to the Kingdom of Heaven, why does God still punish us? For example:

Why is God ignoring the prayers of Americans for the war in Iraq to turn for the better and allowing Allah to win?

Why did God permit two massive hurricanes to pummel and destroy the homes and lives of predominately Christian southern states?

Why do Republican leaders like Congressman Tom Delay and Senator Bill Frist, men who wear their piety and Christian beliefs on their sleeves, now smell of common criminals being investigated for ethics violations?

If these are the consequences of a Christian America, we might be better off praying to another God. It can't get any worse, can it? Perhaps if I rub my little Buddha statue...
