I continue to take some comfort in the belief that God is on our side,

Whenever I read that, I can’t help but think of Tuco, disguised as a Confederate soldier, shouting the same thing. Then, as the Union soldiers brush the grey dust off their uniforms, Clint Eastwood as Blondie leaning over and saying “God is not on our side, because God is not on the side of idiots.”

Well, if God is not on the side of idiots, He sure is letting them breed profusely. Will 2010 see the resurgence of the anit-idiotarian movement? God (on our side or not) I hope so…
