So, now, just what IS God thinking?

Barack Obama's pastor, Jeremiah Wright, who I am quite sure is neither Jesus-like nor genius, has uttered some words which I still have not seen in complete context, but they were like this: 

"God Bless America? No, Goddamn America!"


Let's overlook for a minute the fire-breathing hatred of the Christian, right-wing,  Non-Jesus-like wackos who would criticize anything about any Democrat. Them I don't take seriously, and that includes Pat Robertson and Sean Hannity. 

Seems to me that if God is disposed to bless America, it must be for our goodness; and on the other hand, if we are not good, than we may not be blessed.  I'm inclined to think that if we throw in another Iraq invasion or two, or we water board a few more helpless prisoners, God will be annoyed and may well give us a slap.  Those of you out there who think you're just too precious for God to take a crack at might be mistaken.  Best you duck when America screws up again with your blind approval.
