Meet TOTUS


I'm sure most people are familiar with the pompous acronym POTUS (President Of The United States), well meet the power behind the throne, TOTUS: Barack Obama's Teleprompter's Blog.

And no, I don't write this blog (I seem to be accused of writing any blog that is 1) anonymous, 2) satirical, 3) critical of authority, and 4) humorous). And, remember, we Lutherans are obliged to put the best construction on all things, so if the blog author claims to be the actual hard-drive from the presidential teleprompter, than we are duty-bound to believe him. They've come a long way with artificial intelligence these days - just ask the POTUS.

Better yet, check in with the TOTUS.

And if you want to know how important TOTUS is, look at what happens when POTUS is separated from his partner, he thanks himself, he mocks the retarded, stammers around like a total fool, etc.

Barack Obama is the answer to George W. Bush's prayers. Dubya was nowhere near articulate, but goodness! The current POTUS (and his TOTUS) should keep us laughing for four years - which is good because laughing doesn't cost anything.

Nah. Just one.

That pretty well says it all when it comes to a lot of us Lutherans ability to call a thing what it is.

Even to the point of absurdity.

Dear William:

Just one? Don't I wish. It is amusing, though. I half expect somebody to claim I wrote Hebrews or the Antifederalist papers. ;-)

Dear Scott:

Or, as a certain curmudgeonly professor at Fort Wayne would sometimes bellow: "Lutheranism is absurd!" :-)

Dear William:

Or, as Tertullian is paraphrased as saying: "Credo quia absurdum." :-)
