Scott Brown, In & Out Of Context

Quoting a quoter:
Alan Keyes was predictably quick to condemn the senator-elect from his wingnut pulpit on WorldNetDaily, writing: “He is a typical RINO (Republican-in-name-only) who…embraces the substance of Obama’s socialist agenda, but ‘opposes’ Obama by criticizing his implementation of socialism… [he] agrees in principle with the Democrats on the fundamental issues of justice and morality but employs the deceptive rhetoric of personal opinion to evade the questions of public law and policy they involve. Such issues include child-murder and other abrogations of the unalienable right to life, as well as the rejection of the God-endowed rights of the natural family.”
Shit like that kills us. Southern Babtiss Pastor Wiley Drake, on the other hand (Let's keep it fair & balanced by hearing from a mackeral snapper & a snake-handler.) wants Gawd to kill us. Literally.
“He’s absolutely a RINO,” Drake said. “He’s learned how to talk Republican-ese, but he’s just not a staunch conservative… Had he been more conservative, he would have beaten [Coakley] even worse. People in Massachusetts are sick of liberals, Chappaquiddick* and Ted Kennedy, and that kind of garbage… If he’d been more principled and more behind the litmus test—the Constitution and abortion—he would have won by a landslide.”

[...]

“Michael Steele is a RINO—he’s running on the race card and the big-tent card,” he said. “He wants to be the ethnic group in the GOP that says that Republicans aren’t all white radical right wing.”

I stopped Drake there to make sure I’d heard him right. Indeed I had. “He wants to be supportive of the president because he’s proud that we’ve elected a black to be president of the United States,” he said. “And first of all, he’s not black, according to the black culture—B. Hussein Obama had a white mother. The leader of the GOP wants us to do whatever is necessary to win and reach across the aisle, to prostitute themselves, and that’s the problem with the Republican Party today.”
Hey, real reporting. The author at least made a 'phone call, & spoke to an original source, rather than just cruise the web in search of idiocy. (Or, as in our case, cruise for recycled idiocy.)

*Maybe you should shut up about it then, Pastor.

You know, if God was really the prick a Southern Baptist wanted him to be there just wouldn't be all these undesirables around.

Yet here I am!

Degenerate Ed. Agrees Entirely:

If the best Yahweh can send against this undesirable is a coffee/pretzel incident, we are not worried.
