PLEASE, GOD:
I never bother you with any prayers, believing the force of my own industry and the random luck of the universe to be enough in advancing my life, and that you have other, bigger things to worry about (like the general ordering of the said universe). I have not asked you for anything so far, not even in the darkest moments of my existence, thinking that I get only one shot at a prayer being called, and so at each dark moment, I hoarded the prayer in anticipation or expectation of still darker ones ahead, as I still do ...

But now I see your Bounty falling upon the blessed Earth. On bended knees and hands clasped to my heart, at this solemn moment, believing in the generosity of Providence and the providence of your Plan, I ask for one, small, extra push on your side. You have given us the Palin for 2012; give us now Newt, and Rudy, and thus smite the Republicans with their own hubris.
Your confessedly unworthy subject, I.
Maybe he should just give them the gift of a search light that projects a "N" onto the clouds. Or a red phone direct hotline or something. That way no one could question his willingness to serve the greater cause of the Republican party.
Would make a great sequel: Contract With America II - The Contracting

It seems Newt Gingrich is not the only scandal-tossed former GOP leader who's generously offering

icky. Hah.
Somene should tell Newt about Viagra, the guy obviously needs to get off on something other than himself.

What is so urgent? Why go from (anti-American; according to the GOP) Democratic control to GOP leadership by a serial draft-doger/adulterer? Either will lead to the end of "American Civilization."
Since that is the case, I choose Obama and the Democrats.

icarusr: I kneel beside you.
Great post.
I heard Hannity and Morris last night both say they're not Republicans, they're conservatives...that's the new shtick. They're all burning their uniforms, pretending they never diid take the oath.
Twenty years ago, we never would have seen the likes of Michele Bachmann or Dick Morris on a regular basis, but now with hundreds of media outlets and the internet, 24/7, these egomaniacs are on constant parade, sharing with us how they think, how they plot, what they aspire to. Watching them brainwash each other is fascinating (experts say people are brainwashed due to psychological arrogance). It's like the Reality TV version of Jonestown.

I hope this rumor to use Henry Rivera at the FCC to shut down Talk Radio fails. The more we hear from them and learn from them, the easier they are to defeat.
