Default The Bible brigade is bound for Baghdad and they're in a hurry. (article)

never heard of this paper before, but this is one sharp-tongued reporter. Damn Ashcroft.

The religious right is THE foundation of George W. Bush's political base and he will do everything he can to bolster it and nothing to offend it. If that means messing up some Muslim feelings in the Middle East, so what. They don't vote here.

In Touch Ministries is responsible for a little prayer pamphlet titled "A Christian's Duty" that somehow got distributed to troops in Iraq. It features a list of daily prayers they could offer for the president and his advisors. The red, white and blue pamphlet has a tear-off prayer pledge that can be signed and mailed directly to the president.

good write-up of the god squad.

I see that writer of that article is a Faux News reporter. I wonder how long he'll keep his job after his employers see that column?

Sorry 'bout that. Self-righteous scum like 'In Touch Ministries' just really makes me sick.

On the radio, the wife and I heard In Touch Ministries explain why bad things happens by starting off with "Sometimes a shepard needs to break a lambs legs to teach it who's boss."

I heard this quote and I couldn't believe it. Shepheds don't break a lamb's leg as discipline. And if they did, the leg would not heal - the lamb would turn into barbeque
