On reading this "news" story, I got to wondering about the various gods, and what their election campaign promises would be…
- Quetzalcoatl: Deport all the mongooses.
- Mars: More work! More rest! More play!
- Allah: 10,000% tax on art supplies.
- Mammon: 10,000% tax on everything.
- Neptune: [deleted as suspected phishing]
- Venus:
FreeReasonably priced love. - Anubis: Every city will have an underground rail system.
- Yahweh: You can elect any god you like, as long as it's me.
- Bacchus: 0% tax on all alcoholic beverages. Except lager, which is an abomination.
- Odin: Free eye care for all.
- Aristæus: Blessed are the cheese-makers, for they shall be free of all inheritance taxes.
- Hermes: All your internets are belong to me.
- Apollo: A-one, a-two, a-one two three four…
- Saturn: To reduce traffic congestion, a ring-road for every town.

Veles: Happy Hour 8am to 7.59am
Yay! for the Veles/Bacchus coalition…
Manitou – legalize marijuana.
I don’t know how you feel about music in non-music posts, so I won’t do it again if you don’t like it.
Allah, Buddha, Krishna and “God the Father” all gather to discuss what to do about human suffering. Towards the end of the song Manitou shows up, like always, late and stoned. Instead of solving humanity’s problems they decide to get high. (Or something like that.)
Thor – No immigration amnesty for Ice Giants!
Pikkiwoki – We will put the funding for our coconut and pork distribution program in a lockbox.
FSM – Everybody gets rum, on the house. Every Friday will be a National Holiday.
Kahless – I’ll be back.
Zeus – I did not have “sexual relations” with all those women.
Jesus:
“When you vote, you are not to be like the hypocrites; for they love to stand and announce their party allegiance in the voting stations and on the street corners so that they may be seen by men. Truly I say to you, they have their reward in full. But you, when you vote, go into the inner booth, close the curtain and place an X discreetly in the appropriate place in secret, and the Returning Office who sees what is done in secret will register your vote.”
Mithras – would be the equivalent of Libs – not 100% sure about anything.
Ganesha – would change the bedroom tax into the elephant in the room tax.
Sucellus – come and join MY party!!
