News of the Odd

The Maximum Leader enjoys Yahoo's News of the Odd, so his humble minister will offer up:

Man Sues Neighbor For Breaking Up His Marriage

As I had discussed in a previous post, the Mike World Order will repeal all those silly monogamy laws. Unfortunately for the Maximum Leader, the good Sadie at Mirthful Ones seems to be in a relationship and might not be interested in becoming wife number three (after Mrs. Villain and Jennifer Love Hewitt).

Since the Mike World Order will rely on a literal interpretation of the Bible to command obedience from the masses, I suggest he follow the example of King David (sorry, Irish Lad. You seem nice enough, but the Maximum Leader has purge power):

From 2 Samuel:

11:1
And it came to pass, after the year was expired, at the time when kings go forth to battle, that David sent Joab, and his servants with him, and all Israel; and they destroyed the children of Ammon, and besieged Rabbah. But David tarried still at Jerusalem.

11:2
And it came to pass in an eveningtide, that David arose from off his bed, and walked upon the roof of the king's house: and from the roof he saw a woman washing herself; and the woman was very beautiful to look upon.

11:3
And David sent and enquired after the woman. And one said, Is not this Bathsheba, the daughter of Eliam, the wife of Uriah the Hittite?

11:4
And David sent messengers, and took her; and she came in unto him, and he lay with her; for she was purified from her uncleanness: and she returned unto her house.

Heh. Click on the link to read the rest. Luckily, even after David had the husband killed, God didn't punish David. The child was killed by God for David's sin and David got to keep his ill-gotten booty.

Wait. This started off as a humorous riff. But now I'm distressed. THIS is the morality Ralph Reed wants to legislate? Stop the world. I wanna get off.
