What Do Alan Grayson and Church Lady Have in Common

Could it be ………… Satan?

Well, first, they are both very funny, and they both present an aggressive take on truth and hypocrisy.

Now we have a 3^rd thing, they both think that Satan has something to the darkness at the core of our society:

The Prince of Darkness himself might be best-suited to write the foreword to former Vice President Dick Cheney's forthcoming book, Rep. Alan Grayson (D-Fla.) suggested Monday.

Grayson, during an appearance on MSNBC, blasted the former Republican vice president for having attacked President Barack Obama's handling of defending the U.S. from terrorist attacks.

Cheney's attacks, Grayson argued, were only a tactic to gin up sales for his memoir, which is expected to be released this year.

"I wonder who's doing the introduction to his book?" Grayson said. "Maybe it's Mephistopheles; maybe it's Satan."

Somehow I doubt that Satan would want to be associated with Dick Cheney, it would be bad for his image, but Grayson's underlying point, that the Republicans used security as political theater, rather than making a good faith attempt to keep us safe, is valid.

One note to the morons who compare Grayson to people like Michelle Bachman: There is a difference.

Grayson uses hyperbole to make his point, and he knows it, while when Bachmann says, for example, that US Census data will be used for Kommie Koncentration Kamps^™, she actually really believes it.
