But They All Love Him

The demise of this country is near
  America's leaders God do not fear

Oh, but they all love Him so much
  To fear Him ~ an old wooden crutch

Hi! Gershon, These days, I don't think the leaders believe there is a God. They only bring up God's name to appease the people when they think it will gain them votes. Interesting write. Enjoyed. Blessings ~ Debra

I agree, Debra. I'm sure the leaders don't believe in God. They 'trot Him out' when it will help their #1 cause, i.e., getting reelected and holding onto power. :) gw

Truly, they have stepped back from God only invoking his name at their convenient times.

These crass pols stoop so low as to 'weaponize' God -- Who would have them beat their swords into plowshares and not learn war anymore... ~ Isaiah
