Prayer Time With Perry

Prayer Time With Perry

It’s been 20 years since Boris Yeltsin stood on top of a tank and, with the support of the Russian people, overthrew the evil Soviet empire. Now that’s what I call democracy in action. And I liked his style. Standing on a tank is a lot easier than going through all these interviews, hand-shaking, baby-kissing, bus trips and TV debates in our so-called “election” process. I was disturbed to discover our Texas National Guard currently has no tanks, but I’ve told them to reserve an armored HumVee or perhaps a Bradley Assault Vehicle for me instead.  Just in case.
