WB: Little Ricky

Seen in that light, Ricky’s erratic behavior suddenly starts to make more sense. If, as seems likely, the Party of God has seized total control of the Party of Capital by the time the next GOP convention rolls around, then a "balanced ticket" is likely to mean one that has both a right-wing fundamentalist Protestant and a right-wing fundamentalist Catholic on it — or at least, two white guys who can act the parts.

I live in Erie. We’re on to Santorum around here.
Why do these people insist on going back to a “simpler time”? Life never has nor will it ever be simple.

Compare and contrast:
-Boston: 500 claims by victims of pedophile priests stationed in the
Archdiocese of Boston; there are 2,083,899 Catholics residing in the Archdiocese of Boston.
-Covington, Kentucky: 158 claims by victims of pedophile priests stationed in the Diocese of Covington; there are 78,436 Catholics residing in the Diocese of Covington. One other bit of Covington trivia: Covington, Kentucky is the largest city in Kenton County and the largest county in the Diocese of Covington. Kenton County 2004 presidential election results: Bush-43657 votes-65%; Kerry-22827 votes-34%
It appears that the odds of a sexual assault by a pedophile priest is around ten times greater in Bush country.
Apparently, you must keep your kids, as well as your dog on a short leash around Santorum Republicans.
