The secret is in the number 5, which is 661 numbers LESS than the number of the BEAST!! The pool is located near the Five Colonnades, a shopping Mall in Bethesda, MD.

Jayzus may have been a lamb, but he was a dirty fucking hippy lamb and he was overdue for a much needed bath in sheep dip.

He likes it. For the Lord is a Mighty and and Jealous Lord — with the patience of a dog at dinnertime.

It probably has something to do with Obama putting the free market system on trial.

Does it have something to do with Mittster’s stones-to-loaves program?
“Mitt Romney gave a handful of cash Saturday to a woman who had told him she was struggling financially after an event in Sumter, South Carolina. An aide said the GOP candidate gave the supporter ‘what he had on him’ – about $50 or $60.”

Roger Rabbit Commentary: Another PR gaffe, if you ask me — it smacks of John D. Rockefeller handing out dimes to the poor unfortunates he robbed. Romney displays typical Republican tone-deafness: He’d shred the social safety net to preserve spending on weapons of war, and send the unemployed and hungry to charities that depend on the willingness of rich donors to keep giving in exchange for tax writeoffs. In which case you have to wonder where the money to pay for trillion-dollar weapons programs will come from. The answer is: China, with interest.
Goldy spews:
The folks at Slog figured it out first. John 1:36 and John 5:2 prophesied Tim Tebow’s shitty performance in Denver’s thumping yesterday at the hands of the Patriots, both his total yards passing, and his yards per attempt, respectively.
dorky dorkman spews:
re 9: …which only serves to reinforce what everyone, in their heart, already knew: God will favor a patriot over a wild horse any day.

I thought the same thing about mittens handing out $20s to an unfortunate person, who, curiously, appeared for a second time at his rally, after having given her story at a prior event. Probably had staff find her to use as a prop – which for all its dickish insincerity didn’t even work – once again the action only confirmed that Mittens is an asshole.
As for the Bible quote, anybody got a good recipe for Leg of Lamb of God?
David spews:
@9 Goldy;
Ah. I thought it had something to do with God always looking for a sacrifice.
Of course, I had my own take on Tebow’s 316 yards the other day.
