News On The March!

Grand Ayatollah Ramda’n II of Karbaala according to unconfirmed reports of The Shi’ite Charivari has recommended to the College of Holy Prophets sitting in the Mosque of Hundred Beatitudes, the name of President Bush to be declared as a ‘Mah’di of the lesser name’.
The reason: did not President Bush at a great cost of his prestige and political powerbase invade Iraq in order to remove Saddam Hussein? The Ayatollah who has supported the candidacy of Bush feels that the infidel President, by his single act has earned his place among the blessed and true.
My contacts say the Shi’ites everywhere add a line in their morning prayer and as far as I can understand it roughly translates thus: ‘May the blessed one who sit in Capitol Hill, hallowed be thy name.’
