[Vision2020] George Bush's mystery bulge

[Joan Opyr]

Ted,

Are you trying to suggest that should we be cursed with a second Bush term we can expect The Office of Faith Based Initiatives to morph into The Office of Faith Healing?  Hmm . . . could be the answer to the increasing numbers of uninsured.  Billy Graham, Benny Hinn, and Oral Roberts could travel round the country with mics in their ears, stool pigeons in the audience, and big slabs of cancerous-looking liver hidden in their pockets to produce when the sick, the lame, and the gullible come up on stage to faint and swoon.  It won't work -- nothing short of universal health care will work -- but never mind.  People might feel good for a day or two before they keel back over, and that's probably enough.

On the other hand, we could just cut to the chase and shoot the sick.  What's a bullet cost anyway, 67 cents?  Cheaper than importing drugs from Canada -- or, even worse, that single-payer health care system those sneaky Canooks enjoy.

Hoping for a post in the new Department of Health, Human Services, and Snake Handling

PS: Is Oral Roberts still alive or has he kicked the bucket?  Does anyone know?  Oh well, we could either replace him with Brother Jed or, better yet, ask Pastor/Attorney General John Ashcroft to give the old Lazarus trick a try.  A zombie Oral Roberts is better than a live Jerry Falwell any day of the week.

Aunite et. al.

The possibility of Bush being fed wireless audio during the debate reminded me of The Amazing Randi, famous magician and exposer of psychic and spiritual fraud, who once intercepted the wireless feed being sent to an evangelistic healer who was working an audience of seekers, being told by assistants "off stage" via his hidden ear piece, the info he needed about the audience members, about whom research had already been gathered, so he appeared suitably possessed of supernatural healing abilities.

This is Randi's web site, but it was not accessible tonight.  Maybe this is only temporary?
