Bush Talks Christianity and Other Topics In End of the Year Interviews

The Anchoress hits on the ABC interview that everyone is talking about here at Bush, Christianity; O Divine Spark. Good stuff.

However NRO did a gem of a interview with him also that really should be examined. I get a sense that Bush's comfort level (he seems to reveal more of himself) is on display as we often see in outgoing Presidents. This is a must read at POTUS speaks, &c.

I thought this was the one of the most interesting parts as recounted by the NRO guy

Chew over this, too: “The real challenge will be for a president to never substitute pragmatism for an idealistic vision, because if you do, you have delayed the capacity to marginalize and ultimately defeat the ideology of the extremists.” You and I know that pragmatism is often necessary and called for, and the president knows it too. (That’s why so many “freedom agenda” people are disappointed in him, particularly given the policies, or non-policies, of the second term.) But I know what he means, and I suspect you do, too.

Good read
