Notice how he prays for those in need at the END of his prayer.

I hope this isn't too political. I would understand if it is deleted but I see it as just so dang mormon. The language would be humorous if it wasn't so barf inducing.

O God, our Father, how grateful we are this Thanksgiving that Thou hast seen fit to answer the prayers of the righteous concerning our Republic. Father we ask Thee that Thou wouldst continue to assist us as we seek to right the ship of State and restore our Republic to the glory that Thou gavest us through the Founding Fathers. We pray Thee to continue to help us thwart the efforts of the Progressives to turn our Republic into a Welfare Socialist State. We pray thee that Thou wouldst keep us eternally vigilant these next two years as we consider all elected to serve We the People. We pray Thee, Father, that Thou wouldst continue to heal our land.

Father we also acknowledge Thy hand in all things and recognize; that Thou hast given unto us our loving spouses and goodly parents; that Thou hast provided home and clothing to shelter our family from the storms of life and a bounteous harvest with which to provide for our needs; that Thou hast granted unto us personal strength and charity that we might serve Thee and our neighbor, who may be sick or afflicted, poor or needy, or who may have cause to mourn. In the blessed name of Jesus Christ, our Savior and the Redeemer of the World. Amen.

Fuck this guy. Fuck his prayer. And fuck his ignorance of "our Republic."

Thanks, Raptorjesus! Beautifully said. At least I thought so. to the point, as well.

Thou gavest us? This must be a reeelly holy prayer.

Barf-o-rama! Who wants to bet this guy is gunning for apostlehood?

There's a word in the bible for people like this fella: Pharisee.

Does he think the lard talks in King James English???

He also thanks gawd for his loving spouses,...this guy is old school!

Pass the barf bucket.

The irony?

"We pray Thee to continue to help us thwart the efforts of the Progressives to turn our Republic into a Welfare Socialist State."

in the same paragraph as....

"...Thou hast granted unto us personal strength and charity that we might serve Thee and our neighbor, who may be sick or afflicted, poor or needy..."

Oh the irony is so thick you could cut it with a knife!!!!

to buy up the worthless swampland that is now sprawl. Oh, and thank you for not making my inbred polygamous genetic history manifest in anything other than not having toenails."

I read it with my eyes closed as the Church suggests, and it made me sleepy so I give it an 8.

Thine verbage digusteth mine intellect.

What a phony bastard, eh?

To write out a prayer beforehand and post it on his blog. Pretty sure that is the literal definition of "pretentious."
