Tycho: Sorry about that. Kiko digests the audio files for that, and I forgot that there President's Day was a holiday that people took seriously. Before today, I was not aware just how seriously Kiko took the concept of presidency. Also, I fixed an offensive and aggressively stupid typographical error in the post above. Now, it's only aggressively stupid in the ways I originally intended.(CW)TB

The Off the Shelf column last Sunday, a review of âA Nation of Counterfeiters,â a book about the history of American counterfeiting, referred incorrectly to a practice in Britain, where counterfeiting was once considered a treasonable act. It was punishable by death without âbenefit of clergy,â meaning the special protections once granted to clergy members and certain others to be tried in separate church courts and to avoid some types of punishment; it did not have to do with âaccess to clergyâ for absolution rites.

&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;In an interview with The Washington Times on January 11th, President Bush stated, "I don't see how you can be president, at least from my perspective, how you can be president without a relationship with the Lord." &nbsp;Can he create a law which states that only a Christian can be president? &nbsp;Of course not. &nbsp;Is it a crime to state that he could not have been president without a relationship with God? &nbsp;No. &nbsp;But is there something disconcerting about the head of the country, the holder of the highest public service position attainable, and a man who has so far shown absolutely no qualms about using religion to strengthen the government, and vice versa, making such a statement? &nbsp;Yes, there is.
