John McCain hires Sarah Palin’s Kenyan Pastor to “remove Witchcraft from economy”
WASILLA, Alaska — In a move sure to enhance both his reputation as a maverick reformer and his relationship with conservative voters, Republican Presidential candidate John McCain has hired Kenyan Pastor Thomas Muthee as his chief negotiator ongoing financial bailout negotiations in Washington.

Muthee, who is credited with Palin’s rapid ascension in politics by laying his hands on her, will fly to Washington D.C. later today to begin the process of “removing the witchcraft” from the troubled U.S. economy.

“Senator McCain is a proven maverick reformer and so is Pastor Muthee,” said McCain spokesman Tucker Bounds. “Huge government bailouts are not what conservatives believe in. Fighting witchcraft, however, is. And no one fights witchcraft like Pastor Muthee.”

Muthee, who first earned fame by chasing an old woman out of his village in Kenya, has long been a close friend and ally of Governor Palin. He said he plans to do the same for the U.S. economy that he has done for Palin’s political career.

“God wants us, wants to penetrate in our society, is in the economic area,” said Muthee. “The Bible says that the wealth of the wicked is stored up for the righteous. It’s high time that we have top Christian businessmen, businesswomen, bankers, you know, who are men and women of integrity, running the economics of our nations. That’s what we are waiting for. That’s part and parcel of transformation. If you look at the Israelites, that’s how they work.”

Israelites did not return phone calls for comment. However, House Minority Leader John Boehner said that by bringing in the Kenyan witchcraft fighter, McCain had again proven that he’s serious about putting country first.

It may be true. She may be having a removal of some sort in St. Louis before the debate too.

But Sarah Palin really was blessed by a witch-fighter (a man who believes he fight witches.)

I speak from experience. :evilfrown:

I know the article's satire, but in all seriousness, Pagan/metaphysical shops are seeing an even harder time in the shitty economy than small businesses in general. Probably because when you can barely afford to put gas in the car to get to work and/or heat/cool your nearly-foreclosed-on home, buying truckloads of candles, herbs and books is more of a luxury, despite those things being integral to many of our faiths. I know a lot of stores that have gone under or are about to, because of this. Yet I still run into right wing Pagans sometimes. :wtf:
