While recent media attention has understandably focused on the widespread desire for political change, a new poll also reveals deep-seated anger with God’s performance, with large majorities now favoring a change in the position of "Supreme Being."
The survey, conducted, appropriately enough, by the Pew Poll, reveals that by more than a two-to-one margin, Americans feel that the Universe is on the wrong track, there is no light at the end of the Black Hole, and that the Sun may not even come up tomorrow.
While most respondents still blame the Bush Administration for the invasion of Iraq and the mismangement of the war, an overwhelming 77% held God accountable for the sectarian strife between Sunni and Shia sects, deadly natural disasters such as earthquakes and hurricanes, and the inability to buy a six-pack of Budweiser before noon on a Sunday.
A barely sober Christopher Hitchens, appearing on Charlie Rose, gloated that "I’ve been telling you that God is Not Great."
Reached for comment, God responded by saying, "Look, I’ve been doing this job for more than four billion, err... I mean six thousand years, so I don’t think there’s anyone else with enough experience to wreak havoc on the world, with the possible exception of John McCain."
Perhaps not surprisingly, a majority of poll respondents were also against the idea of Jesus succeeding the Holy Father, citing "Bush 43″ as an example of what can happen when a "son takes over."
