Midknight Review -- new and revised: File this under "Geeeeesh !!" Those danged Methodist, bless their hearts, are at it again.

Editor's notes: Out of American Spectator, we have this rather disappointing Christian news story. We cannot even think of something funny to write about this.

“ . . . . . . they have become a generation of activists possessed with that most American of ideas – that people who love their country can change it.” -- Obama the Radical

On September 30, Van Jones told MSNBC "I think everybody should hold onto your seats. October is going to be the turning point when it comes to the progressive fight back."
