Sprinkling chicken blood over healthcare reform

Maybe setting her head on fire could work, too

What is it with nuts and their inability to limit their craziness to one or two instances per text? Here’s how crankaholic WorldNutDaily commentator Janet Porter plans to spend her Christmas:

All I want for Christmas is my life and my freedom. Two-thirds of America doesn't want this horrible health-care bill, but it's going to take all of us doing everything we can to stop it –including using a secret weapon they don't have.

The weapon we have that they don't is prayer and fasting. […]

We need to act and pray like our lives and the lives of millions of children depend on it. Because they do. So it may mean passing up some Christmas cookies or missing your favorite shows, but one thing's for sure, I don't want to wake up on Christmas morning thinking I didn't do everything I could to stop this lethal legislation.

Right – and refusing to eat or do anything remotely productive for a day or two is totally gonna change anything. I’m sure the people in government, along with your imaginary deity, care very much about some random loon who has a problem with some much-needed healthcare reform and likens it to putting people to death and stripping away her “life and freedom”.

Hey, why don’t you go outside and throw some salt over your shoulders for a few hours? Not that it will change anything regarding healthcare reform, but at least you’ll do something useful for society in this snowy weather, especially with those big blizzard warnings we’re getting for Texas and other parts.
