1. about the same time, the first of the internets will be closed down |
|
Those internets, they're just full of rumors. And the bloggers spread erroneous information, like those faked exit polls.

We can't have people knowing the correct pronunciation and meaning of words, now, can we? It would make our leaders look bad.

6. good point. I was thinking about that. |
|
I'm guessing any thing by Hitchens, Steven Hawking, or dudes with foreign sounding names.
People will flock to Left Behind and Scarlet Letter.

Face it. Its better for the Republicans that people do not read this. If they did, they would realize just how full of shit that Bush and all the other assholes who claim to be Christian really are.
The Republicans would be better off if they could have it the way it was in the middle ages, when the only way people could find out the word of God was to hear it from the Priest (who could interperate and quote it as he saw fit, since no one could double-check).
A new Bible will be written, the Newer Testement According to George W Bush. It will be written in crayon.
