This, apparently, is the secret to the success of her marriage.  <\/p>\n<blockquote><p><em>&#8220;God appeared to me in a vision,&#8221; the Congresswoman said, &#8220;and He spoketh unto me, &#8216;Michele, honey, Marcus has a void that you&#8217;re just not equipped to fill.  But there&#8217;s something else you can do for him.&#8217;  <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;So I close my eyes, open my mouth, and then he, well, here, let me demonstrate&#8230;.&#8221;<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>And afterwards they go out and get another foster child.  No boys, though &#8211; only teenage girls. <\/p>\n<blockquote><p><em>&#8220;Marcus has the boys from his ministry.

Or something.  <\/p>\n<p>As far as anything else going on in the world, I am officially in denial.
