Tommy Franks on George W Bush 

On Gen. Tommy Franks first meeting with the president(p. 231):

When we were about to be seated for dinner, President Bush tapped a glass and said, "Bow with me, please." As he said grace, I was struck by both the eloquence and the simplicity of the prayer. And I ws reminded of the Pledge of Allegiance - One Nation, under God. There was a certain comfort in hearing the president of the United States pray to a "Heavenly Father." I was pleased on that night to have a man of faith on the White House.

And throughout the critical years of American history that followed, my opinion never changed.
