"The Wall Street Journal has just reported that three Christian ministers claim to have snuck into a Senate hearing room in order to anoint the chairs that will be used for Samuel Alito's confirmation hearing next week.

"We did adequately apply oil to all the seats," the Rev. Rob Schenck tells the Journal. Schenck and his colleagues insisted that they aren't taking sides in the confirmation fight. But Schenck said that God is "interested" in "what goes on" in Alito's confirmation process."


Not taking sides.....yeah, uh-huh, right......

As someone on Fark.com pointed out:

So, in other words: A radical cleric associated with a known terrorist organization (Schenck is the co-founder of Operation Rescue) that has engaged in acts of violence against Americans invaded the Capitol building and disseminated a foreign substance in a Senate committee chamber.

Of course, I'm surprised that anything in either house of Congress, when annointed or blessed, doesn't immediately burst into flames......

I wonder

Should I now sue congress cause they are involving church in govenment issues by using those chairs?

Didn't they violate some kind of Homeland Security thing by doing so?
