Pray Harder, Suckers

Written by David on October 9th, 2008

Dana Milbank on the scene at a McCain-Palin “Barack Hussein Obama” rally:

Even the opening prayer was politically charged. “O God, we are in a battle that is raging for the soul of this nation,” the preacher said. “You, O God, have raised up Senator John McCain and Governor Sarah Palin for such a time as this.” The preacher went on: “Help them, O God, to strengthen our economy, to keep our taxes and spending low . . . and grant them the privilege of being elected the next president and vice president.”

Suckers, it wasn’t your prayers that got George W. Bush elected twice.  It was your stupidity.

Maybe America has gotten just a little less stupid.
