A Daily Beast piece explains how 2012 Republican presidential candidates and Tea Party favorites Michele Bachmann and Rick Perry share ties to a radical fundamentalist Christian movement known as Dominionism. Cenk Uygur, Richard Eskow and Brian Unger discuss on The Young Turks.

3. People should be asking them these things at every turn.
Are you a Dominionist? Do you think the "blacks had it better as slaves" clause should have stayed in your dumbass pledge? Are you going to discriminate against non-Christians.

I personally am through with Christianity.

4. It also adds proof to the obvious, that the anti-Sharia laws are projection.
Along with the rouse the bigot factor, they see themselves in their idea of Muslims, so it rings true.
