Except for the white guy in a tie, the farther you go back in time, the more everyone in the video has their income, life expectancy and basic civil rights plummet and disappear. Which is a clue as to who's funding this project.

They'll just stockpile Big Macs for the post-fast gorge-fest.

It worked out great for him. Sure he lost all his money, but everything worked out for him in the end. It was all part of God's plan. That's Hammers life according to those who believe in prayer. I used to believe in prayer so I don't like to get too down on it. It does make you feel better when life is gets tough.

The problem is that the line "not so politicians hear us, not so others listen to us", is a lie. Large prayer revivals are common, this is getting attention (and mockery) because it's being headed up by a sitting governor as a tool for his Presidential election campaign.

Rick Perry isn't rallying people to pray our problems to go away. He's deliberately invited pastors who are eager to blame the problems of America on others for not being proper Christians, and hoping that when the problems get worse, that blame and anger will help his political support soar.

This is why I love poetv, where dickheads can turn a joke about a godawful mc hammer song from twenty years ago into a serious discussion about the efficacy of prayer.

I think this Mad Libs I just filled out is a good springboard for a meaningful discussion of the Debt Ceiling debate; "Mr. Obama previously has FARTED negotiators to EMBROIDER for an ambitious CHEVY NOVA to cut the budget deficit and WORSHIP the PERSIAN CAT."

Your description of how the President's compromised our economic health and increased our reliance on foreign oil by failing to integrate energy efficiency requirements into his bailout of the auto-industry has some false assumptions, which I will correct in the 10 page essay I will post shortly.

You're right. This is all a part of a big flashy revival. I certainly understand that this is pretty lame and that prayer doesn't do jack. Its just I understand the mentality that those this ad wants to reach.
