Huckabee Asks Jesus to Stimulate Economy

Loaves, Fishes Key to Package

In what many political observers are calling an attempt to shore up
his evangelical base on the eve of the nation's Super Tuesday
primaries, former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee today asked Jesus
Christ to stimulate the U.S. economy.

Mr. Huckabee has invoked Jesus' name at many points in the primary
season, but his extraordinary request marks the first time a
presidential candidate has directly asked a deity to provide the
nation with an economic stimulus package.

In a press conference in Mobile, Alabama today, Mr. Huckabee said that
he had asked Jesus to stimulate the U.S. economy with "a fresh
infusion of loaves and fishes."

The former Arkansas governor was not specific about the exact dollar
amount of the loaves and fishes that he had asked Jesus to inject into
the U.S. economy, but advisors later said that it was somewhere in the
ballpark of $70 billion.

Mr. Huckabee said that he had also asked Jesus to solve the nation's
mortgage crisis by "casting out the money lenders."

Jesus' fish-and-loaf-based stimulus package drew a dismissive reaction
from G.O.P. rival Mitt Romney, who questioned Jesus' economic
qualifications while campaigning in California.

"Jesus Christ is my Lord and Savior, but with all due respect, I'm not
sure that He could have turned around the Salt Lake Olympics," Mr.
Romney said.

For his part, Mr. Huckabee offered this tart response to Mr. Romney's
remarks: "This is precisely why I have asked Jesus to smite Mitt
Romney."

Elsewhere, Sen. John McCain's promise to cut taxes drew a strong vote
of support from actor Wesley Snipes.

I tried to make a house payment this morning down at the bank with a
basket loaves and fishes, but they threw me out into the parking lot.
Seems they wanted cash. Damned heathens!

That depends on who you're praying to and what you're praying for.

All prayers to Jesus are futile and all prayers for Huckabee to be the
next president of the United States are wasted.

Hillary Clinton yesterday preach in a Church.

Are all their prayers also in vain?

Did you ever pray?Perhaps you have not pray and not getting
answers,which is why you have no Faith.

In the inauguration of USAPresident---nation pray together.
Abraham Lincoln pray!!!!

Pretty much. All prayers to a being outside yourself are pretty much wasted.
