I was figuratively dragged halfway across campus by her boyfriend who was a friend of mine. Capiche?

Reverend Bob, I know you're a prophet and that, but I can't help thinking that it would take more thugs to drag the voters away from the telly to vote for the AEP than there are voters. Why don't you just get the thugs to vote for you?

So how is that different to any other political party, Reverend Bob?

It's called canvassing, Reverend Bob. It happens every election time in the UK, a little island off the coast of Europe. You probably haven't heard of it.

And I'm talking about a friend-to-friend basis throughout the year, and not pushing any candidates at all! This is something that has never been done before, my friend, only by the AEP in its infinite wisdom!

They don't need to show up at your door, dum-dum. For example, they can contact you through your computer.

Please, I wish to God I never heard of it! I'm not talking about canvassing, I'm talking about a continuing and close relationship between an AEP member and a voter, where the AEP member is actually doing things for the voter throughout the year, becoming his friend, when at election time the voter would actually feel guilty for not helping the AEP member.

So the AEP will have 10 million members doing that stuff full time in order to get a few hundred elected to various offices. Efficient.

Bob, I didn't know you believed in JC.

So it will involve an adult diaper and consist entirely of cookie cutter repetition.

Please, as discussed in "The Ouzo Prophecy," the Holy Trinity is the Holy Spirit, Jesus Christ and the Ouzo Cross, and even the spokesman for the extremely conservative Spiritual Counterfeits Project had to wonder if it's true!

There goes that flying pig again.

LOL You are the most dangerous man in your mother's basement.
