Georgia Raindance

Our esteemed governor held a prayer service to pray to the creator of the universe to give us rain.

And then it rained.

Some would argue that rain was already forcast for the next day. {Well played, Sonny} CNN's Robin Meade, whom I can barely stand watching, begged her viewers to send in their feelings on whether praying for rain makes a difference.

Personally, I don't really care. If you want to pray for rain, knock yourself out. I would think the governor had more important things to do, but I guess pandering to idiots is a big part of his job, so what the heck.

Many of the pictures reminded me of those heathen savages that decent god-fearing Baptists used to kill, on account of their foolish religion.

On the other side of the aisle, there was a protest by about four people, who were all worked up that this was a violation of the seperation of church and state. First of all, these rubes must completely misunderstand that clause. Secondly, get a fucking hobby already. Oh this is your hobby? Get a better one.

All in all, it probably gave a chuckle to the yankees.

UPDATE: The brain-damaged hens at The View have chimed in. As usual, the transcript is breathtaking:

JOY BEHAR: Now, wait a minute, before you go off that you say it's not separation, he is the governor. He is supposed to practice separation of church and state.

GOLDBEG: And he did, and he did.

BEHAR: Just because he wasn't in the Capitol steps I’m saying --

GOLDBERG: No, he wasn’t in the Capitol. Now, the separation, he can do whatever he wants to do outside of the building.

BEHAR: Even if he is the governor of Georgia?

BEHAR: Well, they need to be praying to people who will fix global warming and take care of the environment because that's more realistic.

BEHAR: It's a distraction from the fact that there is scientific evidence that we are in the midst of global warming, which is causing a lot of these droughts and fires. So let's focus on the rationality at of it instead-

BEHAR: Yeah, so let’s might as well pray anyway. Yeah, except this is a governor of a state.

SHEPHERD: How do you know that he's not praying for the global warming?

BEHAR: Well, then let's hear that.
