3. If the pagans are here in America, how is America 'surrounded by Pagans'?
How about fundy Christians surrounded by people with different ways to express their spirituality, Newt? We are not just a 'Christian Nation', we are a nation founded on the concept of religious freedom and/or freedom from religion.

If the newt is 'surrounded', perhaps it is time to entertain the notion that he and the fundy he exploits are NOT the sum total of America. Ee are a nation, not just limited to being 'a Christian nation'.

I see little difference between the newt and Mahmoud Ahmadinejad save the trappings of packaging and not knowing if Ahmadinejad is a serial philander like the newt is.

4. I wonder if he means the Mexicans, largely Catholic, or the
French Canadians (largely Catholic)... the rest of the US is bordered by oceans, newt...are you afraid of pagan fish?

6. I think he means we should be IM-Palin the Pagens...
Peasants: We have found a witch! (A witch! a witch!)
Burn her burn her!

Peasant 1: We have found a witch, may we burn her?
(cheers)
Vladimir: How do you known she is a witch?
P2: She looks like one!
V: Bring her forward
(advance)
Woman: I'm not a witch! I'm not a witch!
V: ehh... but you are dressed like one.
W: They dressed me up like this!
All: naah no we didn't... no.
W: And this isn't my nose, it's a false one.
(V lifts up carrot)
V: Well?
P1: Well we did do the nose
V: The nose?
P1: ...And the hat, but she is a witch!
(all: yeah, burn her burn her!)
V: Did you dress her up like this?
P1: No! (no no... no) Yes. (yes yeah) a bit (a bit bit a bit) But she has got a wart!
(P3 points at wart)
V: What makes you think she is a witch?
P2: Well, she turned me into a newt!
V: A newt?!
(P2 pause & look around)
P2: I got better.
(pause)
P3: Burn her anyway! (burn her burn her burn!)
(king walks in)
V: There are ways of telling whether she is a witch.
P1: Are there? Well then tell us! (tell us)
V: Tell me... what do you do with witches?
P3: Burn'em! Burn them up! (burn burn burn)
V: What do you burn apart from witches?
P1: More witches! (P2 nudge P1)
(pause)
P3: Wood!
V: So, why do witches burn?
(long pause)
P2: Cuz they're made of... wood?
V: Gooood.
(crowd congratulates P2)
V: So, how do we tell if she is made of wood?
P1: Build a bridge out of her!
V: Ahh, but can you not also make bridges out of stone?
P1: Oh yeah...
V: Does wood sink in water?
P1: No
P3: No. It floats!
P1: Let's throw her into the bog! (yeah yeah ya!)
V: What also floats in water?
P1: Bread
P3: Apples
P2: Very small rocks
(V looks annoyed)
P1: Cider
P3: Grape gravy
P1: Cherries
P3: Mud
King: A Duck!
(all look and stare at king)
V: Exactly! So, logically...
P1(thinking): If she ways the same as a duck... she's made of wood!
V: And therefore,
(pause & think)
P3: A witch! (P1: a witch)(P2: a witch)(all: a witch!)
V: We shall use my largest scales.
(V jumps down)
----------------------------end?---------------------------------
(walk over while cheering)
(push her into scale)
V: Right, remove the stops!
(wait while scales remains still)
All: A witch! burn her burn her!!

7. As a Proud Pagan, I resent his witch hunts!!
Haven't his Christian Taliban types murdered and tortured enough people that don't except their beliefs yet?
I think I might have a lawsuit here. This is terrorism dang it.
He is just lucky I don't turn his ass into a frog....or a newt.
:P
