Last week, Americans made clear their dissatisfaction with the President and his policies at the voting booth.
This week, an Indonesian man made clear his disdain for the President with a voodoo ritual.
Different strokes for different folks.
Ki Gendeng Pamungkas slit the throat of a goat, a small snake and stabbed a black crow in the chest, stirred their blood with spice and broccoli before drank the “potion” and smeared some on his face.
[...]
“I am doing voodoo, because other ritual would not work,” he told reporters after he conducted the gory ritual about 1 kilometers from the palace.
Strange as it sounds, you just can’t make this stuff up. Almost sounds like the plot for a John Gresham novel. Or maybe Laurel K. Hamilton.
(Yes, I know it’s not exactly voodoo that he did, as that is strictly part of down-bayou lands and Carribean islands. I get the feeling that the reporter could only find one suitable and close enough translation for the story. YMMV.)

Sadly, I think the ritual might end up being more effective.

Do you think he could be persuaded to do one for Tony Blair?

If we get greedy it will not work.
