It's official: satire is dead

I am going to post about Cheryl's celebration of life (promise, I'll get to it soon), but this was sent to me, and...I know Cheryl would have gotten a kick (or the palm-to-the-forehead) out of this:

Jesus People Pray That False Idol Will Save God’s Economy

Now, Cheryl and I both fell into the spiritual-but-not-religious category (and we're evil socialists, too), but we both know enough of the Bible to know that this is a really stupid idea. Seriously, with all apologies to our right-leaning readers, if this is the best the Republican Party of today can come up with, they are definitely headed the way of the Whigs, Free Soilers and Know-Nothings.

All that's missing is Edward G. Robinson lamenting, "Where's your messiah now?"
