At last night's New York State Republican Party dinner, at which Rudy Giuliani appeared as a loser and Dick Cheney spoke like a hero, the "invocation" was delivered by a "Monsignor" Jim Lisante. Guess what? He's a comedian, too! He tells all sorts of funny jokes, this guy, he's hilarious. Check out this line from his "partisan" appeal to his God: "One more thing, Lord. Please tell Senator Obama that maybe change is a good thing and maybe he should think about changing his favorite preacher." But his favorite preacher is you, MONSIGNOR! [Ben Smith]
