...Here's the real, actual prayer directive from prayin' central:

"1. Please pray for an end to discrimination against people of faith who are nominated to serve in our courts.
"2. Please pray that the Senate will treat people of faith who are nominated to serve on our courts with fairness, giving them a 'yes' or 'no' vote.
"3. Please pray for the nominees who have been filibustered-that they will be encouraged, determined, and able to forgive their enemies.
"4. Finally, please pray for an end to the misuse of the filibuster by Senators who are hostile to people of faith.
"5. Please pray that the judicial activism in this nation is reigned in and that we will have judges who will not legislate from the bench."

Perkins tells we members of the Super-Duper Prayer Team, "I cannot thank you enough for your commitment to praying with us. This is the most important action we can take. May God bless you." Fuck voting. Fuck calling your member of Congress. Fuck petitions. Fuck all that and more. Praying is more important than any of that bullshit 'cause, you know, God needs to know that the people of America want him to directly intercede in the hearts of Chuck Hagel, John McCain, and other Republicans. What happens if we members of the Super-Duper Prayer Team fail in our prayerful heroic actions? Forgiveness? Fuck that, too....
