May HE also have mercy on this country and stop the evil that keeps prevailing.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Customer:  I'm looking for some after-shave lotion.

Clerk:  Walk this way, please.

Customer:  If I could walk that way, I wouldn't need after-shave lotion.

Oh, you beat me to it. If I had read this thread sooner, I would have used that one.

But on the other hand, I have different fingers.
