	I'm personally a Bush supporter, but I think it is bad form for 
Christians to suggest one must be a Bush supporter to be acting in a 
Christian or righteous manner.

	I have an number of disagreements with the president myself, the 
biggest being the USA PATRIOT Act. That in and of itself, is enough to 
weaken my support -- don't get me wrong, I support Bush, but I think 
this is one of the worst pieces of legislation to ever be signed off 
on, and unfortunately it is President Bush who signed it and defends 
it.
