Just give them their dog-and-pony show.

Give them Rick Warren, voguing evangelical for the throngs, feeling the *oh!* passion of the Spirit on National TV.

Give them his eyes, closed in euphoric prayer, at one with Jesus and the Lord of Hosts (whatever the fuck that's supposed to mean)

But keep that nut away from policy.

In fact give him the publicity that he so craves. It's fucking obvious isn't it? He wasn't allowed to do drama in High School - the guy has drama geek written all over him, whether its the beard or "golly gee" Jim Neighbors voice.

He wants an audience.

So give him one.

But keep that nut away from policy.

Hell, maybe we need a Rick Warren Variety hour...

One with dancers in overalls, synchronized swimming in chastity bathing suits, singers and at the end a conga line down the sawdust trail.

But keep that nut away from policy.
