It really pains (and frightens) me to say it, but the truth is that as I hear more self-righteous invective from the "Conservative Christian Right" or whatever they want to call themselves I see less and less difference between them and the Islamic fundamentalist crazies who decapitate civilian contractors and fly planes into buildings and committ any number of other atrocities and tell us they're doing it in the name of God.
Really. When Pat Robertson is advocating political assassination on his nationally syndicated television show, can we be at all surprised that his wacko brethren are taking this massive human tragedy and gloating about it?

Eeeek.
You know what's sad? I am not the least bit surprised or shocked by this. My reaction is something like, "Yeah, that figures."
Frankly, I was expecting this.

Fuckers.
So if that's true... why is it that a major hurricane hits the Big Easy every few decades, but tornadoes strafe the Bible Belt every summer?
Speaking of Robertson, earlier this week FEMA had his "Operation Blessing" listed right under the Red Cross as a recommended donation recipient.
Like Greg, I expected this. After all, God gave us 9/11 because of the feminists and gays.
Yeah, that a crackpot like radical cleric Robertson has so much influence over our government and the national conversation is just pathetic.
That a crackpot like radial cleric Robertson exists at all is cause for some mighty despair.
I can't vent enough right now.
Oh, there'll always be idiots like him. He should just be shouting on a street corner in Times Square while the crowd ignores him, is all.
