So how freakin' lame and dangerous does the fundie right have to get before the main stream media
starts CALLING them lame and dangerous?

This Cohen clown gives hypocrisy a bad name. But, as pathetically stupid as he may be, he is not nearly as dangerous as "Pastor" Rick Warren. CEO of the mammoth Saddleback Church, Rick "pals around with homophobic murderers", lending his name and prestige to "fellow believers" in Uganda who recently passed laws which provide a death penalty for homosexuals.

There's no "explaining" this ridiculous and criminal attitude. There's no real denying that it is diametrically opposed to the teachings of that guy they supposedly revere and try to emulate. There is no reasonable way to ignore this without "aiding and abetting" the murder of innocent people just because they happen to be gay.

Most of us don't have microphones, but we can contact those who do. EVERY "religious leader" who appears on TV or is interviewed on radio, especially those who claim to be "Christians", should be asked, live and "on the air", if they support or condemn(those are the options, thank you, George W. Bush) Pastor Rick, Cuckoo Cohen and the execution of people solely for being gay.

The networks will hear from me. You?

2. I guess you dont have a clue. We are in a class war. The media serves the other class.
They dont give a crap about what you think or me or anyone except the ruling class. The longer you are in denial, the longer it will take to over throw their damn ass.

3. Agreed.
When will the media in this country start calling the repukes out on their craziness? They aren't even a legitimate political party anymore. Tea parties? It's so ridiculous.
