President Bush Receiving Orders from God?

In an article about the Middle East peace efforts, Haaretz.com quotes Palestinian Prime Minister Mahmoud Abbas saying that President Bush told him: "God told me to strike at al Qaida and I struck them, and then he instructed me to strike at Saddam, which I did..." Granted, there might have been some miscommunication and/or mistranslation as it made its way from Bush to the news, but the possibility of it being true is deeply troubling.

Do we really want a president who is listening to and obeying orders from his god rather than from his constituents, the citizens of the United States who elected him? If he does, then that would presume that he regards his authority as stemming from God, not from us - and then what need would there be to ever really listen to what Americans want or vote on?

A president who prays needn't be a problem; a president who pays more attention to the will of God than the law or the will of the people, however, definitely is.
