Oh, this is too funny...

On he 23rd, I believe it was Senator Coburn who asked the Senate to pray that at least one of the Democratic senators would become ill or something, and thus have the bill fail. Very Christian of the good senator, since he probably meant 92 year old Robert Byrd.

Well, Mr. Mountain, aka Sen. Inhofe, didn't show up for the vote, and this teary 'devout' old guy gets on C-Span, and thouht they prayed so hard, he was afraid they killed one of their own.

Awesome. One should always be careful about what one prays for, uh-huh...


Update: it might have been a hoax, but nowadays the crazies are so out at the boundaries of reason, who knows? Link HERE. Just the fact that a sitting Senator asked his colleagues to pray for the sickness or eventual death of Byrd leads me to believe that anything is possible...
