New "Ex-Republican" Ministry
I am thinking of starting a new "Ex-Republican" ministry. As we all know, Republicans are trapped in an unhealthy and dangerous alternative lifestyle choice that undermines American values.

I believe that there is a desperate need for an "Ex-Republican" ministry that can teach Republicans trapped in that horrible lifestyle there is hope for them to change. Republicans need to hear the good news that they CAN change their lifestyle choice, as evidenced by the thousands of ex-Republicans who have found freedom from hate and bigotry and are living normal lives today.

This ministry could be non-demoninational, and could bring the power of the faith community as well as the wisdom and compassion of the Democratic majority in America to bring ex-Republicans back into the mainstream of society. It is our duty to hate the sin of Republicanism, but to love the Republican sinners and show them that they can be delivered from the racist, hate-filled alternative lifestyle choice that traps them in the bondage of anger and anti-intellectualism.

Any ideas for a name for this new ministry? I've considered several, but thought I'd throw it open for ideas.....

It's an old joke:

Hi my name's Bob and .... I'm an idiot.

Hi John, welcome to the club. (Applause)

5. Republicans Anonymous
a 2-step program (don't want to make it too mentally challenging; one must know one's audience; besides, that way we could wean them off of Toby Keith)

6. Not BAD!
Maybe just make it a "one-step" program. And the prayer could be:

God grant me the serenity to accept my stupidity, courage to stop watching FOX, and the wisdom not to hate minorities."

10. Republicansanonymous.org is taken, but .com is available
Probably bought up by the RNC to keep it out of our hands.
