early in the campaign, I remember Bush making clear that he considered Jesus as responsible for his recovery from moderate alcoholism...He is as 'sure' of his moral/religious ground as any devout Muslim, and I have no doubt that it is only with great restraint that he does not inject this righteousness into the public/political arena more overtly.

There was a semi-cute little bumper-sticker joke going around a few years ago..."Kill a Commie for Christ". Only, in some folks minds, it is not so funny...and various things can be substituted for 'commie'.

No...I do not read minds, and I do not 'know' exactly how Bush, or anyone else, thinks. But I think I'd be scared out of my wits if I did!
