2. Sure, not a problem Pat
because when a holy man like your fine self asks we all jump to comply. Here's my prayer for Tom Delay:

Dear God,

Could you please smite Tom Delay?
He's a miserable bastard
and he deserves it.

Prayerfully,

redwitch

5. Does that mean only God can help him now?
If there is a God, I'm sure he'll mete out justice on that pasty-faced fascist.

7. Sure. I'll be praying, all right....
O Lord, please visit your divine wrath upon the pestilential carcass of Tom Delay, that he might never plague and persecute your children again.

Amen.

18. Implication is to pray for Delay to escape punishment, not change evil way
--snip for Washington Post link:
It was time for Robertson to wrap up the interview. "You're a hero to the conservatives in this country, and a lot of people are with you,"
--

Real Christians pray that he'll see his evil ways: breaking laws, cheating Americans out of the right to fair representation

and swear off politics forever.

20. A guy as evil as Delay isn't going to change his ways.
Dude's bad to the bone; he's evil forever. So I guess the only thing God can do is just smite his sorry ass.

19. Dear Lord
Please send Tom Delay to prison for life, and while you are at it, please take the rest of bu$hCo with him.

God, you know I don't ask you for anything very often, but please here my prayer today.

Amen.

21. I will pray Psalm 109 for Delay - fits the situation perfectly
Psalm 109 - A Prayer for Tom Delay

1 Hold not thy peace, O God of my praise;

2 For the mouth of the wicked and the mouth of the deceitful are opened against me: they have spoken against me with a lying tongue.

3 They compassed me about also with words of hatred; and fought against me without a cause.

4 For my love they are my adversaries: but I give myself unto prayer.

5 And they have rewarded me evil for good, and hatred for my love.

6 Set thou a wicked man over him: and let Satan stand at his right hand.

7 When he shall be judged, let him be condemned: and let his prayer become sin.

8 Let his days be few; and let another take his office.

9 Let his children be fatherless, and his wife a widow.

10 Let his children be continually vagabonds, and beg: let them seek their bread also out of their desolate places.

11 Let the extortioner catch all that he hath; and let the strangers spoil his labour.

12 Let there be none to extend mercy unto him: neither let there be any to favour his fatherless children.

13 Let his posterity be cut off; and in the generation following let their name be blotted out.

14 Let the iniquity of his fathers be remembered with the LORD; and let not the sin of his mother be blotted out.

15 Let them be before the LORD continually, that he may cut off the memory of them from the earth.

16 Because that he remembered not to shew mercy, but persecuted the poor and needy man, that he might even slay the broken in heart.

17 As he loved cursing, so let it come unto him: as he delighted not in blessing, so let it be far from him.

18 As he clothed himself with cursing like as with his garment, so let it come into his bowels like water, and like oil into his bones.

19 Let it be unto him as the garment which covereth him, and for a girdle wherewith he is girded continually.

20 Let this be the reward of mine adversaries from the LORD, and of them that speak evil against my soul.

AMEN

28. Dear God.
You know that eye for an eye and tooth for a tooth thing? Here's hoping it still applies. I really hope you see fit to bring down this evil sunuvabitch.

PS - if you don't give this prayer some serious thought, I'm gonna have to go ask Sutekh, Anubis and Loki for some of their firepower. You might be the Wal*Mart of the Divinity Division, but I hope you still care about individual customers enough to service their needs.

30. If God was on their side he wouldn't need prayer, would he?



I dunno. Robertson might have inside info, given that he's God's right-hand man.
