Obeying God is the most important. So the question is to decide what God is telling you to do. Obviously Bush is confident with what he believes God is telling him.
And of course you could interpret the Iraq war in many different ways. Either the US is aggressivly attacking a defenseless nation for selfish reasons, or they are freeing it from years of oppression, bringing peace and stability to those people. The "right" act would depend highly on motive.

A leader making decisions based on faith would typically voice the "righteous" choice as a salve to conscience.
Also, for the record, White House spokesmen today are denying Bush ever made the statement. There is only the word of someone that he did.
