So do you think we can swing Ah-nuld the Governator to support us? I mean, I don’t care much for him, but _oh_ those bodybuilders! Perhaps he can introduce me to Rod Jackson or Bob Paris?

I’m mobilizing the Southeastern Illinois Rural Liberal Jackass bloc, and we’re solidly behind you guys. Both of us are very excited.

In the meantime, it appears that the presidential candidate is MIA. Where is **Polycarp** , anyone have updates?

His last post at the Pizza Parlour (where he mods) was Sept 27th.  
Maybe he took a vacation. I just e-mailed him, see if a reply shows up.

Maybe **Siege** knows?

Maybe he’s been too busy running for Governor of California, and just hadn’t mentioned it to anyone?

**Polycarp** is on a secret political mission involving various extra resources. That is all the information I am authorized to give out at this time. That said, it is my understanding that he will be at the Dope-A-Ween Dopefest/rally in a few weeks.

By the way, although both soon-to-be Mr. President **Polycarp** and I strongly support the separation of church and state, I would like to point out that [it has been preordained that we are chosen by God to be His duly-named children.](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?postid=3453711#post3453711)

So mote it be.

Sigh! Once again, big brother gets the headlines while I just keep on manipulating things behind the scene!

Now, on to that bill directed at Messrs Robinson, Wildmon, Phelps, etc. . . .
