The anointed one’s pilgrimage

If you're reading this at work, be forewarned before you click the link: today's Gerard Baker column at the UK Times Online is laugh-out-loud funny. Here's the opening:
And it came to pass, in the eighth year of the reign of the evil Bush the Younger (The Ignorant), when the whole land from the Arabian desert to the shores of the Great Lakes had been laid barren, that a Child appeared in the wilderness.
The Child was blessed in looks and intellect. Scion of a simple family, offspring of a miraculous union, grandson of a typical white person and an African peasant. And yea, as he grew, the Child walked in the path of righteousness, with only the occasional detour into the odd weed and a little blow.
Read the whole thing. Baker came up with some hilarious names. I especially liked "King Bill the Priapic."
