I was born in Texas and live in Texas. There are many good people here, and also many tea-partiers (including my neighbors and parents).

I am not religious, but I can't help but feel as though the "rapture" is a self-fulfilling prophecy that these folks are making happen, and I fear for our future. Someone on this board, can't remember who, said Perry was "Greg Stilson" making a reference to a Stephen King book about the possible end of the world via nuclear holocaust. It frightens me, but that feels right. Sort of a "self-made antichrist" because these folks are anything but christ-like (and I hate saying that about my own family).
