    George Washington was quiet about his faith as well, even in private. The fact that his Christian faith cannot be definitively ascertained doesn't seem to diminish from the respect due him.

    Yet, it seems that now we expect the piety from the potus as though it were a mandated litmus test. And when their piety isn't good enough for us (which it almost never is) then it's "rake 'em through the coals" time.

    ""The Bush's are a family of professional politicians and in the US professional politicians have to portray themselves as godfearing church/synagogue goers even if they aren't. ""----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Or perhaps they are a family of christians who often find themsleves in touchy diplomatic situations that sway them into making questionable statements.

    I'm inclined to concur with bunyon and give the potus, for that matter, any potus, the benefit of the doubt.
