The other side

Falwell says church must work to defeat Hillary Clinton in '08: Roy Moore also addresses pastors

"The church won the 2004 elections and don't let anyone tell you any differently," Falwell told a crowd of about 9,000 attending Southern Baptist Convention Pastors Conference, a prelude to the two-day annual SBC convention that starts today.

"Now we've got a bigger challenge ahead of us. We've got to deal with Hillary in '08."

There you go. If you're against Hillary, you're for Jerry Falwell's vision of theocratic America. According to Jerry Falwell, anyway. I don't even think Hillary's going to run.

You really don't think she's going to run? Do you mean ever, or just in '08? Do you think she's going to be satisified if the Senate is the height of her own political career? There's been a lot that's probably been over-stated about Hillary, but I have a hard time thinking her political ambition is one of those things.

Um, just a couple of questions:

Are churches allowed to do this sort of thing and retain their tax-exempt status? I mean, if they weren't fellating Repugnicants when they do it (IOKIYAR)?

Is it okay for the Invisible Cloud Being to step in on one side or the other of a political debate? I thought that it was supposed to love all humans, not just those who vote a certain way...

Everything is okay if you're a Republican. Even if it's totally unacceptable they'll just claim you're a liberal.

I don't think Hillary can win, and I think she knows that she can't win and won't try.

Mac, that was a scary link. I never thought even the farthest right Republican would call Fred Phelps a liberal.

As for going after Hillary, I'm sure that's number two on the fundraising list, right after fighting the "homosexual agenda".

Actually, they're combining the two by claiming she's a lesbian. It's in a book and everything.

If Hillary runs for President...Oh.My.God. That will be the Mother of All Campaigns. It will be All Bile, All the Time. We might even see a few kook pundits explode.

As far as the lesbian thing, I actually have firsthand knowledge from my previous job, but I don't see what that has to do with running for President.
