Faith-Based Fanatics
This would be terribly funny if if were not so true....
He’s had a busy summer. As God only knows, he was summoned to slaughter in the Holy Land, asked to end the killings of Muslims by Buddhist monks in Myanmar, and played both sides again in the 1,400-year-old dispute over the rightful successor to the Prophet Muhammad.
In between, not much down time. Yes, the World Cup was fun, and God chose to mess with His Holinesses, pitting the team from Pope Francis’s Argentina against Germany, home of Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI. Well played, even if the better pope lost.
At least Rick Perry was not his usual time-suck. The governor proclaimed three days of prayer to end the Texas drought in 2011, saying, “I think it’s time for us to just hand it over to God, and say, ‘God: You’re going to have to fix this.’ ” The drought got worse. Two years ago, Perry said that God had not “changed his mind” about same-sex marriage. But the states have. Since Perry became a spokesman for the deity, the map of legalized gay marriage in America has expanded by 50 percent.

Since Hobby Lobby can refuse to pay into Obamacare because cock scabbards violate their religious beliefs, can I refuse to pay into the Faith Based Initiative because some of it goes into religious organizations that I do not support?

Mmmm, let's see, for the wingnuts, Sarah Palin, Michelle Bachman, Ann Coulter, Phyllis Schafley, others as I'm sure I missed a few. With these as representative I can see how irrational it is not to be on board the Teapublican klown kar.
BTW, good article.

Indeed. I was trying out my purchased-new 1978 GE Superadio yesterday and picked up the EIB stand-in on a distant station, an ass with a Brit accent waxing every bit as ridiculous as the regular idiot. I find it incredible that any rational person wastes their time on this garbage but know a few Limbotomised dittiots myself.
I studied the 3rd Reich years ago mainly to determine Hitlers motive (very simply put, he envisioned himself the fated Teutonic/Aryan messiah and acted to fulfill his perceived destiny) and found the acceptance by an educated but desperate populace of his ideas thru himself and Josef Goebbles hard to understand beyond basic psychological manipulation. The hard won costly lessons of not-so-distant history are lost too soon.

Do you mean to tell me that the pervasive notion spreading in this country by 24/7/365 media outlets such as EIB and FoxNews that it's unpatriotic to vote for anything but a Republican...............is mind control, Steve?
Wow, now that's just crazy enough to be true.
