Tea-Baggins And Conversations With Jesus

Hey all you tea-baggers, get ready for another dose of Joe!

But he's got to get his schedule clear with the man upstairs first.

When asked if he would run for office, Joe "The Gimmick" Wurzelbacher offered this as his reply:

I hope not. You know, I talked to God about that and he was like, ‘No.’

Well, interesting that the Lord would give such a concrete, concise, answer. Most people that claim to speak with God often tell that He doesn't work that way. You, he has to be "mysterious" and all that. Of course, this is Joe we're talking about here.

So what does He want Joe to do.

....I believe he’s gotten me on this grassroots movement. If I can encourage leaders to step up, that’s what I would like to do. That’s a heavy role. That’s something I don’t know if I am prepared to do yet.”

Ah, the proverbial "grass-roots movement". Wonder who will be sponsoring Joe in his "movements".
