The Lord Blessed the Latter End of Job

The sixteenth Daddy Goodspeak and his brother in Christ, Silvio Berlusconi, have joined to comfort those afflicted by the L'Aquila earthquake. Berlusconi said that those made homeless by the disaster should view their temporary accommodation as "like a weekend of camping". After all, "They have medicaments. They have hot food. They have shelter for the night", and therefore lack for nothing, except some real estate whose value was probably dropping anyway. Meanwhile, the sixteenth Daddy Goodspeak has been good enough to give the seal of his moral approval to the relief operations, despite the earthquake and its consequences being presumably the result of God's will; and he has promised to visit the area, doubtless to the ineffable comfort of all those who lack for nothing, once Easter Sunday and the aftershocks are over. Evidently he has more important things to do at the moment.
