Congressional Hopeful Blames Troubles On The Devil
kutv ^ | Jun 23, 2006 | ap

Posted on 06/24/2006 9:02:16 AM PDT by catholicfreeper

SALT LAKE CITY Republican congressional hopeful John Jacob believes the devil is impeding his efforts to unseat five-term Representative Chris Cannon.

He says there's another force that wants to keep him from going to Washington and the devil is what it is.

Jacob says that since he decided to run for Congress, Satan has disrupted his business deals, preventing him from putting as much money into the race as he had hoped.

Jacob said during a Wednesday immigration event that the devil was working against him, then reiterated his belief yesterday in a meeting with The Salt Lake Tribune editorial board.

He says there's been a lot of adversity, and there's no question he has had experiences that believes are due to an outside force.

i fully believe that the devil is alive and well and interfering in people's lives on a daily basis, but that kind of talk isn't going to get this guy elected, that's for sure!

". . . He says there's another force that wants to keep him from going to Washington and the devil is what it is. . . ."

Well if this guy wants to know where the devil really is, I will suggest he should start by looking in Washington.

Well, there you have it. It confirms my longstanding belief that, while God is not a Repubican, Satan is almost certainly an enthusiastic, Michael Moore, Democrat.

The guy is clearly delusional. He will fit right in in Washington.

These are conservative mormon voters we're talking about. If anything, this will have the opposite effect.
