   ALL HAIL REAGAN, the ORIGINAL the ONE! *genuflect*

   Seriously, whenever Mitch posts a prayer request it is a sincere request. I clicked on the link thinking Leo was in need, only to find this pathetic blasphemous retort. You guys a fricken losing it . . . Sheesh!

   I will never trust another prayer request from this site. Sad, really, it was one of the few ‘good’ things this site was useful for.

   May the Lord have mercy on your soul!

   Flash,

   The line between sincerity and satire is both cleverly hidden and blazingly obvious.

   You guys a fricken losing it . . . Sheesh!

   What – again?

   Seriously – if this site was “losing it” as fast and much as you’ve been claiming for the past three years, we’d have closed down.

   Clearly, we are not.

   I will never trust another prayer request from this site.

   Every day we are faced with choices.

   …its pathetic how far back we have to look to find a Democrat that inspired our nation to a degree even close to that of Ronald Reagan.

   …and don’t even think of offering Barack Obama one month in. You were, weren’t you?

   Mitch, the satire wasn’t here, it was at Leo’s site. To have your co-editor abuse what was once a consistent and relevant Title, and for you to then defend the indefensible, is well, stunning.

   Indefensible. I think we’ve found a new Unforgivable Sin. Blaspheming Obama. I suspect Flash would have nodded in a wizened fashion, had this satire been directed at Great Leader’s predessor.

   And It’s not “Leo’s site”. It’s Freedom Dogs. Freedom. A diminishing commodity in the Obama Nation.

   Has the Flash ever been anything more than a disingenuous “concern” troll?

   Obviously being an Obama supporter, you’re easily stunned so I wont’ find myself too concerned, I’m sure.

   Careful when you get off that High Horse. You might turn your ankle.

   I’m sorry flash, but “losing it”? Do us a favor: Go back and look at the rhetoric spewed by your lefty cohorts during the Bush administration if you really want to see the epitome of “losing it.”

    Yeah, yeah we get it.

    “This once great blog” blah, blah, blah, “Shot in the Onion”, blah, blah, blah, “genuflect”, blah, blah, “Scaifenet”.

    By the way, peev just called. He says you owe him royalties for utilizing soul-crushing tedium.

    OK, neutral corners.

    Roosh used satire.

    Flash was offended.

    Everyone take a deep breath.

    There.

    That’s better.

    Hmm. Deep breath. I took so many of those over the last eight years. Forgive me if I feel the need to exhale.

    This “flash” fellow is really a sensitive little flower isn’t he?

    we must all be careful and humourless, and much more politically correct in the future so as to not Offend this delicate arbiter of the human condition.

    I’m praying to Republican Jesus(TM) to enflame Roosh’s hemorrhoidal tissues.

    The fact that the post was labeled “Humor” should have made it quite clear that it wasn’t a serious prayer request. Maybe next time you need to add bold blinking red text at the top of the post announcing SATIRE.

    I didn’t see the tag, I saw Prayer request and Leo, and since Leo has gone through some tumult recently I clicked through right away to see what was up.

    I talked to Mitch on the phone, he understands, but this ‘mitch’ guy is to afraid to acknowledge the gaff online. So be it!

    Sorry for caring, I won’t make that mistake again, here.

    As such you should have been relieved.

    Stop. Martyrdom doesn’t wear well around here.

    As with Flash, I saw “prayer request” and “Leo” and my breath caught a little. When I immediately followed the link I was relieved and amused at the parody, but a little put off by JR’s headline. When someone says “Wolf” you get ready for a wolf, not a Tex Avery cartoon. The headline was at fault, but it’s not a terminal infraction and one I’m inclined to indulge as an error of judgment in the quest for funny rather than a character or content deficiency. People have certainly had to indulge me over the years.

    Flash,

    If you want to pray for someone, might I suggest the family of wife’s best friend? Her best friend’s brother dropped dead of a massive heart attack yesterday. Only 46 years old, leaves behind a wife and 3 kids. I knew the guy well – a great guy who would do anything for you. I’ll be writing about him on my blog, probably tonight. And that prayer request goes out for anyone else who feels so inclined.

    Thanks,
    Mr. D

    NWriter, thanks for sharing your similar reaction.

    Mr. D, All my hopes!

    Night Write sez: “amused at the parody, but a little put off by JR’s headline”

    Flash sez: “May the Lord have mercy on your soul! ”

    Yep, that was a very similar reaction.
