God's Crappy Agents

via Think Progress:
God, I really believe, has placed me here for a reason because who else and why else would you do this unless there’s something inside of you that says right now you need to be here to do this?

As with many comparable statements made by Dubya the Killer Clown during his catastrophic tenure in the White House, I have to assume that Steele's declaration that God has to have put him where he is represents a fragile circuitous sanity-preserving confession that even he realizes how utterly incompetent, surreally inappropriate, and completely out of his depth he is, that one really has to posit something like the workings of providential machineries to make any kind of sense of the position he has assumed, else he might literally start screaming and run for the hills flinging feces in an absolute abject wild-eyed panic.
