Someone once described the gospels of Mark, Luke, Matthew
and John this way:
It was as if someone born in 1973 decided to write
the story of Watergate in 2014 relying only oral histories.
And the writer was a Republican.
My favorite part of the crucifixion story is when Jesus
dies and the city is beset by earthquakes, and then
the dead saints rise from their graves and start walking
around. And no one seems to care. Mary reportedly just
stands on a nearby hill, calmly taking it all in, not
losing her shit, as you might expect, over her sons
grisly death and all this unusual spectral activity.
No wonder no one takes this book seriously.

"Donald Trump didn’t so much stumble coming
out of the gate, as collide with the gate, pause to
scream at the gate, run back through the gate in the
wrong direction, and send his surrogates forth to complain
that it was all the gate’s fault." - Mark
Sumner
----------
Four years ago Trump called the re-election of Mr.
Obama a travesty and demanded that the people march
on Washington.
Yes, he
really did.
----------
The rich, bratty little girl
posing as president claimed, while visiting the CIA,
that
he/she's been
on the cover of Time Magazine fifteen times.
"
A
record!" he/she said.
The truth?
Nixon: 55 times
Hillary Clinton: 18 times
Bratty little girl: 11 times
----------
The next Star Wars movie is going to be titled "The
Last Jedi."
Hope springs eternal.
