Slate’s Tom Peyer answers the question, What if Christ spoke at a
Republican Party fund raiser?
The Parable of Jesus and the Rubber Chicken
.

First, let Me express My gratitude for your support over the last few
years. It’s nice to be thought of as a winner for a change. If I had known
we’d get the House, the Senate, and two consecutive terms in the White House
(APPLAUSE)-if I’d known all that, I would have had an easier time that Friday
on the Cross, let me tell you. (LAUGHTER, APPLAUSE)

But seriously, folks (LAUGHTER)-no, seriously, that day did pass, and then
two more. Then I rose from the dead. (CHEERS, APPLAUSE) Thank you. I rose from
the dead and I flew up to Heaven. But first, you’ll remember, I made a little
side trip to Hell (SCATTERED BOOS) just to get a look at how they do things.
And I’m here to tell you, Hell is just like Heaven (AUDIBLE GASPS)-but with
taxes. (LAUGHTER, CHEERS, APPLAUSE)
