This is one of those things you look around to make sure isn’t satire because it sounds like satire, but isn’t.

Rafael Cruz, the father of Tea Party-backed Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX), told a conservative media watchdog this week that it was doing what Jesus wanted by fighting the “liberal media.”

I have this image of Sweet Jesus holding a boom box up next to his head, swinging a bat at Rachel Maddow and Ed Schultz and there’s little “Kapow! Bam! Whup!” signs all around Jesus.  And there’s Cruz & Son Funeral Home gathering up the remains and sending the bill to Barack Obama.

And that’s not satire either.  That could really happen.  You know, except for the Jesus part.  I’m pretty sure that Jesus pretty much adores Rachael Maddow.

Thanks to Irene for the heads up.
