More than 150,000 mourners are set to pay their respects, church officials say


Thousands of mourners gathered at the headquarters of the Unification Church in South Korea as the 10-day wake for leader Sun Myung Moon began.

Buses ferrying men and women in black and white began arriving at the Church's compound in Gapyeong, 60km (37 miles) east of the capital Seoul, early in the morning.

Moon died at the age of 92 on Monday. His funeral will be on 15 September.

He set up the Church in the 1950s and established a business empire.

1. Republicans rend garments, wail, gnash teeth at death of their beloved Second Coming MooneyBags Man

All across the Fruited Plains, right-wing 'conservative' Republicans are mourning the death of the Second Coming of Christ, Rev. Moon (R), the occultly beloved Cash-Money-Bucks Bagman who gave so generously to Republicans, who in return adored him (or at least pretended to).

It is possilble that Neil 'Silverado Stinky Fingers' Bush (R) -- pictured below with Rev. Second Coming Moon (R) --will attend the services to represent the BFEE and the whole of the Republican Cabal, and thus to expresses their great sorrow at having lost a fabulous source of easy money that could be spent to dupe with propaganda the lumpen cadre of docile radio-and-tv consuming RepubliProles.

2. I paid my respects by driving past the Washington Times building on New York Avenue ...

the day before yesterday and hocking a huge loogey in their direction.

3. Someone should drive a stake through the "heart" of

that evil, corrupt fucker just to make sure he's really dead. Truly one of the worst human beings of the last fifty years.

4. Throw his carcass in the garbage

But I wouldn't be surprised if they're going to marinate and display him.

5. When is Sun set to rise again?

If he's everything he always said he was, shouldn't that be a question on all his followers lips?
