Crazy Talk: ADF Lawyer Makes Nice With Florida Radio Extremist

[Joanne98]

Did you know that President Barack Obama's name is really "Barry Soetoro"? Did you know that he "obviously hates Christianity"?

Were you aware that Mikey Weinstein, founder of the Military Religious Freedom Foundation, is an "atheist Jew" who deserves to be thrown into a swamp?

Have you heard that God was so angry over a recent court ruling striking down the National Day of Prayer that he sent a fireball soaring over Wisconsin?
These are just some of the things I learned today after listening to a recent radio show called "TruNews" hosted by a West Palm Beach, Fla., pastor named Rick Wiles.

I decided to listen online after noticing that Wiles had interviewed Erik Stanley, an attorney with the Alliance Defense Fund (ADF). The ADF was founded by a collection of right-wing radio and TV preachers in the early 1990s to push the Religious Right's legal agenda, and it's always interesting to hear the group's spin on the church-state news of the day. It often has only a passing resemblance to reality.

This time, I got more than I bargained for. In the space of just 25 nutty minutes, I entered a whole new world of crazy, a veritable Religious Right Bizarro World where simply asserting something makes it true!
