Poll question: Should Senator Salazar have called James Dobson the anti-Christ?
Edited on Thu Apr-28-05 02:50 PM by coloradodem2005
As you know, Salazar said that and recanted to say that he thought they were being un-Christian. But he is currently being taken to task for it. Either way, I am proud of him for standing up to those assholes. Here is what I wrote on another blog.

Why is it ok for the Republicans to name-call, fingerpoint and demean, but if a Democrat does anything similar, it ends his political career, at least in theory? Give me a break. I am sorry, but FotF started this fight. I am tired of these so-called "Christian" organizations trying to dictate morality. One wonders why I have quit going to church. If it looks like a duck and quacks like a duck then it is a duck.

5. No. THE anti-christ.
Anti-christian or AN anti-christ, I think is perfectly justified.

6. FOtF picketed Salazar's wife's Dairy Queen for God's sake!
Then the next day, they denied that they had anything to do with those protesters.

I wish Id've known this, I would've gone and gotten a Blizzard... only a 20 minute drive...and eaten it right in front of them...slurping like Cloris Leachman and her Fruit Cup!:evilgrin:

7. Calling anyone the anti-Christ just feeds into the Rapture myth.
The fundies don't need any encouragement.

8. Call it like it is!
We've got to stop being so 'nice' and show our muscle and, more importantly, our superior mentality. This is the only way retards get the message. In all my vocabulary, I cannot come up with words vile enough to describe this repug assault on our country.

12. I agree. He's falling into the "no true Scotsman" trap
Dobson & his ilk are better off treated as a potentially dangerous nuisance, rather than adhom'd as mythic figures.

13. Why not? After all, we are godless sinners who are intolerant of Christian
beliefs.

Right?

So, they can call us names and condemn us to hell, why shouldn't it go both ways?

15. The more the Talibornagains are demonized, the better I like it
Edited on Thu Apr-28-05 03:15 PM by Husb2Sparkly
I know there are other fish to fry, but to me, the greatest single threat to us right now is the rise of these wackjobs. All the other evil stems from their participation with and for the cabal. They used to be simple enablers ... bad enuff, to be sure. But now they want to *replace* the very people they enabled. And *that* scares me even more than the cabal does.

On edit ... I voted 'Hell Yes'
