2. I have no fear
With the speeches we have heard this week, Obama's will be icing on the cake.


Of course the M$M will just tear it apart as that is what they do.

4. You know who I pray to? Joe Pesci. Joe Pesci. Two reasons;
first of all, I think he's a good actor. Okay. To me, that counts. Second; he looks like a guy who can get things done. Joe Pesci doesn't fuck around. Doesn't fuck around. In fact, Joe Pesci came through on a couple of things that God was having trouble with. For years I asked God to do something about my noisy neighbor with the barking dog. Joe Pesci straightened that cock-sucker out with one visit.
I noticed that of all the prayers I used to offer to God, and all the prayers that I now offer to Joe Pesci, are being answered at about the same 50 percent rate. Half the time I get what I want. Half the time I don't. Same as God 50-50. Same as the four leaf clover, the horse shoe, the rabbit's foot, and the wishing well. Same as the mojo man. Same as the voodoo lady who tells your fortune by squeezing the goat's testicles. It's all the same; 50-50. So just pick your superstitions, sit back, make a wish and enjoy yourself.
And for those of you that look to the Bible for it's literary qualities and moral lessons; I got a couple other stories I might like to recommend for you. You might enjoy The Three Little Pigs. That's a good one. It has a nice happy ending. Then there's Little Red Riding Hood. Although it does have that one X-rated part where the Big Bad Wolf actually eats the grandmother. Which I didn't care for, by the way. And finally, I've always drawn a great deal of moral comfort from Humpty Dumpty. The part I liked best: "and all the king's horses, and all the king's men couldn't put Humpty together again." That's because there is no Humpty Dumpty, and there is no God. None. Not one. Never was. No God.

8. Remember those two three-pointers with the troops.?
That's Obama, tonight.

He's gonna be awesome, it's going to come so naturally and with such authenticity, we'll all be smiling, crying, screaming...

Just be sure to be sitting down, drink plenty of fluids, and use the restroom before he begins!!!

9. Like George Carlin... I'll pray to the sun... or to Joe Pesci.... either one is just as effective


But only Joe Pesci can kick serious ass.
