Surely by now we've taught God all he needs to know?

Obviously, Chula. I'm not as stupid as you assume I must be for having the gall to disagree with you. Just because it can be beneficial to some doesn't mean that it's a necessary function of the president.

Sorry we didn't fix those levees and your family drowned.
Sorry we had to send your dad to his death in a pointless war.
Sorry your sister died at the hands of a rapist our system paroled or didn't jail for long enough
Sorry
Sorry
Sorry
We're so sorry.
****. That. ****.
