BREAKING NEWS: GOD OVERRULES SUPREME COURT VERDICT

In a stunning development this morning, God invoked the &quot;one nation, under God&quot; clause of the Pledge of Allegiance to overrule Tuesday night's Supreme Court decision that handed the White House to George Bush.

&quot;I'm not sure where the Supreme Court gets off,&quot; God said this morning on a rare Today Show appearance, &quot;but I'm sure as hell not going to lie back and let Bush get away with this bullshit.&quot;

&quot;I've watched analysts argue for weeks now that the exact vote count in Florida 'will never be known.' Well, I'm God and I DO know exactly who voted for whom. Let's cut to the chase: Gore won Florida by exactly 20,219 votes.&quot;

Shocking political analysts and pundits, God's unexpected verdict overrules the official Electoral College tally and awards Florida to Al Gore, giving him a 289-246 victory. The Bush campaign is analyzing God's Word for possible grounds for appeal.

&quot;God's ruling is a classic over-reach,&quot; argued Bush campaign strategist Jim Baker. &quot;Clearly, a divine intervention in a U.S. Presidential Election is unprecedented, unjust, and goes against the constitution of the state of Florida.&quot;

&quot;Jim Baker's a jackass,&quot; God responded. &quot;He's got some surprises ahead of him, let me tell you. HOT ones, if you know what I mean.&quot;

God, who provided the exact vote counts for every Florida precinct, explained that bad balloting machinery and voter confusion were no grounds to give the White House to &quot;a friggin' idiot.&quot;

&quot;Look, only 612 people in Palm Beach County voted for Buchanan. Get real! The rest meant to vote for Gore. Don't believe me? I'll name them: Anderson, Pete; Anderson, Sam, Jr.; Arthur, James; Barnhardt, Ron...&quot;

Our Lord then went on to note that he was displeased with George W. Bush's prideful ways and announced that he would officially smite him today. In an act of wrath unlike any reported since the Book of Job, God has taken all of Bush's goats and livestock, stripped him of his wealth and possessions, sold his family into slavery, forced the former presidential candidate into hard labor in a salt mine, and afflicted him with deep boils.

Dick Cheney will reportedly receive leprosy.
 
lol, good news cast

under god? Burn the atheists! 😉

btw, the whole under the lord thing in the pledge sprung up in Eisenhower's Precidency to seperate us from the 'god-less communists'... anyone know more details?
 
Franics Bellamy wrote the original in August of 1892. In 1923 and 1924 the National Flag Conference, under the leadership of the American Legion and the Daughters of the American Revolution, changed the Pledge's words, 'my Flag,' to 'the Flag of the United States of America.' Bellamy disliked this change, but his protest was ignored. Then, in 1954, Congress (after a campaign by the Knights of Columbus) added the words, 'under God,' to the Pledge. The Pledge was now both a patriotic oath and a public prayer.

 
I like this version a little better

In a stunning development this morning, God invoked the &quot;one nation, under God&quot; clause of the Pledge of Allegiance to uphold and affirm Tuesday night's Supreme Court decision that handed the White House to George Bush.

&quot;I'm not sure where the Florida Supreme Court gets off,&quot; God said this morning on a rare Today Show appearance, &quot;but I'm sure as hell not going to lie back and let Gore get away with this bullshit.&quot;

&quot;I've watched analysts argue for weeks now that the exact vote count in Florida 'will never be known.' Well, I'm God and I DO know exactly who voted for whom. Let's cut to the chase: Bush won Florida by exactly 2,219 votes. God doesn't count dimples&quot;

Shocking political analysts and pundits, God's unexpected verdict affirms the official Electoral College tally and awards Florida to George Bush, giving him a 271-266 victory. The Gore campaign is analyzing God's Word for possible grounds for appeal.

&quot;God's ruling is a classic over-reach,&quot; argued Gore Lawyer David Boies. &quot;Clearly, a divine intervention in a U.S. Presidential Election is unprecedented, unjust, and goes against the constitution of the state of Florida.&quot;

&quot;David Boies is a jackass,&quot; God responded. &quot;He's got some surprises ahead of him, let me tell you. HOT ones, if you know what I mean.&quot;

God, who provided the exact vote counts for every Florida precinct, explained that bad ballot design and voter Stupidity were no grounds to give the White House to &quot;a tree hugging' idiot.&quot;

&quot;Look, 8,612 people in Palm Beach County voted for Buchanan. Get real! They didn't mean to vote for Gore. Don't believe me? I'll name them: Anderson, Pete; Anderson, Sam, Jr.; Arthur, James; Barnhardt, Ron...&quot;

Our Lord then went on to note that he was displeased with Albert Gore Jr's prideful ways and announced that he would officially smite him today. In an act of wrath unlike any reported since the Book of Jobe, God has taken all of Gore's tobacco fields and rental properties, stripped him of his wealth and possessions, sold his family into slavery, forced the former presidential candidate into hard labor in a salt mine, and afflicted him with deep boils.

Joseph Lieberman will reportedly receive leprosy.
 
Frenchie and all of you, I think God would have pulled rank on the abortion issue if he could have long ago and overturned Roe v. Wade.
 
Exactly. This was just a humorous look at the election. No need to delve into a philisophical debate on life.
