In a story by the AP Thursday, 2008 presidential hopeful Rudy Giuliani disavows longtime friendship with ex-police commissioner Bernard Kerik. Worried that recent federal criminal charges brought against Bernie might tarnish his candidacy, Rudy gave his ‘pal-o-mine’ the old heave-ho.

Some friend Rudy is!

In a related story, God endorses Rudy this week. Well, not directly. He did it through his earthly protégé, the divinely-unhinged Pat Robertson. It’s all the same thing, right?

Wait just a minute. This doesn’t make sense! God tapped Rudy on Wednesday, then Rudy kicks Kerik to the curb on Thursday? For heaven’s sakes why? I thought snagging the most supreme of endorsements meant you were a shoe-in for the presidency?! Having God on your team means you can do no wrong, doesn’t it? It worked for Bush! Bush could invade a sovereign nation illegally, bring about the deaths of hundreds of thousands of it’s citizens, and would still retain high regard of many Americans. (Actually, I think he done it once)

Chilling thought for the day: Imagine a country that followed a separation of church and state ideology… where it’s politicians and leaders had to abide by laws instead of relying on the God / Pat Robertson connection. What an absolute mess that would be!
