Republican Christians threaten America with God's can of whoopass!

Here are some of the quotes from the lunatic fringe attending the War on Christians and the Values Voter in 2006 conference in Washington.

"I believe the most damaging thing Tom DeLay has done in his life is take his faith seriously in the public office, which made him a target of all those who despise the goals of Christ."

Oh! I thought the most damaging thing he had done was selling his vote to the highest bidder and demonstrating a complete lack of ethics.

"Bush has hurt his own troops very badly with what he's done on immigration," Phyllis Schlafly told me in a room outside the hall. "I think he's really destroying his base with his views on bringing in more guest workers."

Phyllis Schlafly! She is "old school" crazy!

Let's see what is else is on the agenda this evening.

They reminded the audience that they are one judge away from overturning Roe v. Wade. They warned that Christianity is on the verge of being criminalized in America, and they harped on the manifold dangers of the "homosexual agenda."

You see in this forum they don't even pretend that they are not trying to overturn Roe vs. Wade. And I am so pleased to see that they did not forget to attack the gays. But what tool will they use to push this lifestyle, which is gaining more acceptance daily, back in to the closet.

"I don't think so-called GLBT teens are told anything like this" by their school counselors, LaBarbera said. "We need to find ways to bring shame back to those who are practicing and advocating homosexual behavior."

Oh yeah, shame! A tried and true old standby.

But really what can they do to stop America's march toward enlightenment?

"America is no longer good. Unrighteousness, evil, corruption, perversion and death are now standard operating procedure in the United States of America. If we do not put an end to it now, in this moment of divine destiny, then God will and God should judge America."

And if that does not work?

"A spiritual invasion is taking place," Parsley roared to the packed banquet hall on Tuesday morning, drawing out the "a" in invasion. "The secular media never likes it when I say this, so let me say it twice. Man your battle stations! Ready your weapons!" He paused to take a preemptive jab at his critics, his voice going soft and scolding: "They say, 'his rhetoric is so inciting.'" Then he nearly screamed, "I came to incite a riot! Man your battle stations! Ready your weapons! Lock and load!"

I really love these religions of peace. Islam, Christianity, Judaism, they are all just so cuddly.
