Finally there is hope. A politician that realizes he isn't at the top.

One of those moments in life that you always remember even though it was a small thing:

I was in bible college during a school building project. The president got up and prayed for nothing but blue skies for the duration. The head of the religion department remarked that the local farmers probably wouldn't appreciate that prayer much.

It's okay to smoke in Georgia.

And if it doesn't rain, does he finally admit God hates people who vote for Bush?

If Carter had not lusted in his heart way back when, god would probably have more mercy on Georgia. It's Jimmuh's fault.

Oh Lord.

If Carter had not lusted in his heart way back when, god would probably have more mercy on Georgia. It's Jimmuh's fault.

THe Lord moves in mysterious ways, not in turtleous ways. Reagan was God's punishment on America for Jimmie's lusting, just as Bush is for Clinton's bj.

turtleous?

And if it doesn't rain, does he finally admit God hates people who vote for Bush?

No, it just proves he hates Brunswick stew, the Falcons, and boiled peanuts.

Cool the nuke
float the barge
bathe Buckhead
wet the sprawl -
phd's say
reservoir
Sonny say let us
pray.

Perdue has recently been touted as a potential Vice-Presidential candidate for the GOP.

Perdue won a Georgia state senate seat in 1992 as a Democrat.

He switched to the Republican party in 1997. - Wikipedia

somewhat
turtleous.

I just walked outside here in Burbank, CA and it's cold and damp with a slight chance of a little rain. I LOVE this kind of weather during winter and Southern California sure needs any moisture it can get.

Southern California sure needs any moisture it can get.

Well, don't piss god off. you see how he's smitten Georgia.

Well, don't piss god off. you see how he's smitten Georgia.

correction -

"god" should be "God"

Careful. Nothing pisses God off more than not using a capital "G" when writing His name :)

"Prayers For Rain" Pt II ~The Cure

you fracture me
your hands on me
a touch so plain
so stale it kills
you strangle me
entangle me
in helplessness and
prayers for rain
i deteriorate
i live in dirt
and nowhere glows
but drearily and tired
the hours all spent
on killing time again
all waiting for
the rain.

The Lord helps those who help themselves.

WilliamJ Pray Tell where are these folks supposed to help themselves to Water when they are bone dry?? You can't get water from dust.

Larry Mohr

Drums please...

Hey ya hey ya hey ya hey ya

Key ya hey ya hey ya hey ya

(Rain dance)

That's good I bet he get's the rain.

I bet he don't!

Lord schmord

Rain output has been rather turtleous around here lately.

great word NG

Who needs God when you can steal water from the wet lands in other states. We need the water for our lawns.

On another note, my statistics prof didn't move his boat in time and it is now sitting by his dock in about 4 feet of mud. Dumbass. I guess it will take about 2-3 years before he can get it out. Sweet justice.

Nice Panic quote R8!

Christ on a crutch, just one more shining embarrassment for those of us living in GA. Sunni Perdue seems to have many of the same mental illness related issues that GWB has. I was sure hoping this topic would not land on Drudge Retort.

Coyote. ty. Googled it this morning-its some Russian poet's word.

I don't mind him praying for rain. I just wish he meant it. Its just another stunt to pump up the base.

R8, maybe Panic can go home and go to work. I wouldn't mind seeing them put on another free show in Athens.

Does he think God doesn't know it hasn't rained in Georgia? Maybe it hasn't rained because God thinks the Governor is an asshole.

YEAH!

Turns out, the weather channel is calling for rain on the day of this proposed pray fest!


However im sure it won't stop the Cult members from claiming divine intervention even though it's forecast to rain already!

No pray to god other than Unga Bunga.
Unga Bunga weather god.
You give Unga Bunga papaya and mango.
Then Unga Bunga give rain.

Global warming problem?
Pray Unga Bunga fix global warming.
Al Gore is Unga Bunga prophet.
Give money Al Gore
Then Unga Bunga change global warming.

Unga Bunga no fake.
Unga Bunga make weather.
Those who don't believe
Are bad bad people.

We enlightened civilized society.
We have learned only Unga Bunga control rain.
And we hold "sacred belief" that Unga Bunga only help
If we ask the great Unga Bunga to help.

Say prayer:
Unga Bunga make rain.
Unga Bunga make rain.
Unga Bunga make rain.

Unga Bunga so love world
That Unga Bunga give it rain.

Reason Georgia not have rain
Is Jimmy Carter worship false god.

Unga Bunga has spoken.
Thus spake Unga bunga.

A Gov. organizing a prayer meeting for rain? How come this bumblefuck isn't laughed out of office? Hm. Wrong question I guess if the jethros in georgia voted a baptist in.

"""Perdue has several times mentioned the need for prayer -- along with water conservation -- as the state's drought crisis has worsened."""

Prayer ALONG WITH water conservation. Priorities are a bit fucked, but at least the man covers his bases.

"""Perdue's office has sent out invitations to leaders from several faiths for the service, set for Tuesday."""

At least the bumblefuck is inviting others to the party, I just hope someone films this and slaps it onto youtube.

I hear sacrificing a virgin also works...Vernon, BLT maybe you guys should lay low for a little while.

God is God. If "g" is used, then allusion is not made to God, who is God.

So it is written. So it shall be.

On another note, my statistics prof didn't move his boat in time

Shouldn't a statistics prof know before most that rainfall is below average?


But I think Sonny Perdue needs to show God he's serious, come out in full Native American regalia, and perform a rain dance on the steps of the Capital building.
God wants some entertainment if he's going to pony up the raindrops.

The Lord helps those who help themselves.

Then why not just do the job yourself, with no help, and take the credit for what you've done, instead of giving it to an absentee landlord?

Johnson, why do you even bother? Every god dies. It's only a matter of time before people wise up and replace him/her with another one.

buy=by

*before the spelling Nazis show up*

People who don't plan ahead and make an effort to work those plans seem to pray a lot more that the rest. Pray all you want, but you are screwed. Atlanta is just the first whose resident will have to move North. Eventually this will affect most of the country

Oh great, R8RH8R:

I knew it was a matter of time before some rightwing nut-ball would inject the Spelling Nazis into this whole thread!

Leave the spellers B.

This is definately not good news for makers of commodes.

A scientific study was conducted for heart surgery patients to discover whether prayer improved post surgery results. IT DID NOT. If it had the Religious Charlatans would have been all over it.

There is no evidence that god even exists, and if god does there is no evidence that it gives a flying fuck about our lives. The only evidence is that there are a bunch of books out there that were written thousands of years ago, and are often completely different from one another. So I don't see a reason why people should believe that prayer does anything, unless they need that crutch to accept the cruelness of the world we live in without going crazy.

"""The only evidence is that there are a bunch of books out there that were written thousands of years ago, and are often completely different from one another. """

Those books don't even qualify as evidence. No more than a book on unicorns, wood nymphs and gnomes. The sell job of this fantasy, now that's the true miracle.

How could the God who helps baseball players catch fly balls allow the Southeast to go without water?

Because God is a red sox fan.

And the lord smiled as he sayeth, go sox.
Genesis 3:21

can't get water from dust.


Yeah but you can stop watering the fucking golf courses.

Fuck dehydration I need to golf!

I think they be more apt to get rain by dancing around a bonfire,naked coated with mud and bones thru their noses.

How much more rain has GA receieved this year than AZ has? Them folks don't know dry.

Them folks don't know dry.

Spud was in a bar once and this Australian guy walked up and asked fer a beer adding...

"Make it quick, my throats drier than a nuns tasty"

Spud spewed beer laffing at that and then bought the guy a beer.

Aussies make good drinking buddies!

That one's still funny fer Spud.

Spud is sooooo immature! ^_^

Be Well.

That's good I bet he get's the rain.



Heheh..yeah. i bet he does too. It's been raining and not raining for a few million years.
The odds of it never raining again are rather remote, don't you think?

So, let me guess: if it rains tonight, or tomorrow, or next week, or next month, then Gawd gets the credit, eh? But if it never rains again in Georgia, then its going to be "Gawd is punishing Georgia for our sinful ways!!" right?

The scope of theist idiocy never fails to amaze me.

Meanwhile, the buffoon did his rain prayer foolishness back in June, and nada (God was obviously testing the faithful...heheheh). Maybe back in July the Gov. should have declared Georgia a disaster area, begun desalinization plants with Fed. support, contracted with neighoring states for water, seeded clouds, implemented mandatory water restrictions, begun deep well drilling, shut down high water use businesses, subsidizing the employees and busnessses for lost income.

Hey, maybe a good old fashion rain dance couldn't hurt. Where are those Native American shamen when you really need them?
