“I beseech you, in the bowels of Christ ...
“I beseech you, in the bowels of Christ, think it possible you may be mistaken.” Oliver Cromwell on Bu$h lies.

Thank you Keith!

1. Christ was just some damn hippy Jew from 2000 yrs ago.
Bush's gods are money, power and oil.

3. Cromwell died 1658: then was "executed" in 1661. He pissed somebody off!
In 1661, Oliver Cromwell's body was exhumed from Westminster Abbey, and was subjected to the ritual of a posthumous execution. Symbolically, this took place on January 30; the same date that Charles I had been executed. His body was hung in chains at Tyburn. Finally, his carcass was thrown into a pit, while his severed head was displayed on a pole outside Westminster Abbey until 1685. Afterwards it changed hands several times, before eventually being buried in the grounds of Sidney Sussex College, Cambridge, in 1960.
