Garrison Keillor has written a Salon.com article [1] titled “The chosen president: For the Current Occupant, it’s enough to believe that he’s been ordained by God. What does it matter what anyone else thinks?” Here’s an excerpt:
Clearly the Current Occupant sees himself as a chosen president, though his theology is simpler than Calvin’s: really just four points — blindness as vocation (if you don’t remember it, you’re not responsible for it), unquestionable authority (the president is the president is the president), sustenance of faith (God has ordained you and it doesn’t matter what anybody else thinks) and heckuva job (never admit a thing, let a smile be your umbrella). If you ran a business on those principles, you’d be in big trouble. Just look at General Motors.
