    Under "God"

    Mother Jones has finally done a story about the Christian Reconstruction Movement, a theocratic nightmare I've been yelling about for years. FINALLY someone is making the connection between this pack of braying, totalitarian jackasses and the software we use to vote, as well as the destruction of our republic by a protestant elite that wishes to place women in obscurity, execute homosexuals and send those they deem unfit to slavery. Though their to do list is much, much longer and all of it is purely undemocratic and utterly evil, devil inspired mental illness.

    The piece mentions that this "movement" is invisible to the public and the media at large.

    Ah gee and shucks too!

    How could that have happened when the Oval Office Nit Wit even quotes them occasionally? You'd think the media doesn't believe it is their job to ask questions of the government, or anyone else, or is afraid to ask because they think they will be punished.

    We need to take back our media. All the media conglomerates need to be broken up, toot sweet. Hey, the repiglikkkans did it with the phone company.

    Read this one carefully, then call you representation to complain about these GIGANTIC DELUSIONAL PATRIARCHAL FREAK DADDIES.

    Though the article doesn't mention this, this bunch has been able to introduce several pieces of legislation in the senate and the house, (though none was voted into law) which means they have more representation in congress than you do. One of their signatures is stopping "judicial activism", which means removing the authority of courts to balance and check a heavy handed executive branch. Sound familiar?


    An excerpt

    ... The Old Testament—with its 600 or so Mosaic laws—is the inflexible guide for the society DeMar and other Reconstructionists envision. Government posts would be reserved for the righteous, as long as they are male. There would be thousands of executions a year, with stoning a preferred method because it would turn the deaths into “community projects,” as movement theologian North has noted. Sinners in line for the death penalty would include women who commit adultery or lie about their virginity, blasphemers, witches, children who strike their parents, and gay men (lesbians, however, would be spared because no specific reference to them can be found in the Books of Moses). DeMar told me that among Reconstructionists he is considered something of a liberal, because he’d execute gays only if they were caught indulging in sodomy. “I’m happy to just drive them back into the closet,” he said.(...)
