Bartlet gamely keeps up, although his own absurd attempts at Paris-isms ("Peace All!") abetted by a cameo from Fake First Son Charlie Harper are horrific. Still, the scariest thing about the whole video might be that Paris' policy recommendations (essentially, declare victory and get the hell out of Iraq; force banks to renegotiate interest rates for homeowners underwater on their loans) actually sound halfway reasonable.

This baptism is the core doctrine that separates Pentecostals from other Evangelicals, and it is seen as manifested by physical evidence such as healing powers, speaking in tongues and even bodily inhabitation. (Some Pentecostals take "being filled with the Holy Spirit" to mean that the spirit is actually...
