How could someone commit such a sacreligious sin!?
    Just because the man has taken the Christian faith, twisted and warped
it into a media monster, used it to gain for his own greedy self the
awesome command of the all-powerful moral majority, and used this role as
his vehicle to enable him to stick his fingers in other peoples' pies
throughout the world for no damn good reason, doesn't give any lowly scum
the right to deface his all-holy name.
    Just because this phlegmbag of divine right and manifest destiny feels
that it is his place to judge what is right for the rest of the human race,
even to the point of using other people's money to support his judgements,
doesn't make it fair to caricature his name, even if it's funny.
    And just because this jerk has fouled the waters of the Holy Spirit
with his demented versions of judge not lest ye be right, God helps those 
who have the most money, and Do unto others, especially if they be black,
doesn't give any mere mortal the right to infer that this demigod is a
fowl well, even if that's just what he might be.

So cut it out, OK!?
