This is from a commenter over at From Pine View Farms and was too good not to share here:
*****************************************************************************
The Sermon on the Radio

Limbaugh. 5:3-13

3 Blessed are the physically wealthy,
for they shall rule the earth.

4 Blessed are those who are not Mexican,
for they will not be deported.

5 Blessed are the bankers,
for they will foreclose on the meek.

6 Blessed are those who cause others to hunger and thirst,
for they shall be called capitalists.

7 Blessed are the merciless,
for they will be called good businessmen.

8 Blessed are the corporations,
for they are people too.

9 Blessed are the war profiteers,
for they will be called good Americans.

10 Blessed are those who persecute because of self-righteousness,
for theirs is the pulpit and podium.

11 Blessed are you when you insult others, persecute others and falsely say all kinds of evil against others because of me.

12 Rejoice and be glad, because great is your reward on earth, for in the same way persecuted the great conservatives who were before you.

    Thanks for picking this up, Cassandra M.

    It is a marvelous bit of writing, is it not? and deserves exposure.

    I wish I could take credit for it.

    Here’s one that describes most of the voting population in Delaware.

    Ineptocracy (in-ep-toc-ra-cy) – a system of government where
    the least capable to lead are elected by the least capable of producing, and where the members of society least likely to sustain themselves or succeed, are rewarded with goods and services paid for by the confiscated wealth of a diminishing number of producers.

    rewarded with goods and services paid for by the confiscated wealth of a diminishing number of producers.

    Wow, that exactly describes the contraction of the middle class as their income and assests flow upward into the pockets of the Mitt Romneys of the world. I think Rocky is starting to get it.
