Hannah Giles – Who’s Her Daddy?

It’s not her “pimp,” “independent filmmaker” and future model for Halloween pimp costumes, James O’Keefe – although they’ve been traveling around together…nah, they’re good Christian kids so it’s all very chaste. I was curious about the background of this half of this young Christian crusading, dynamic duo who specialize in sting videos intended to bring down favorite right wing targets, Planned Parenthood and ACORN....And I must say that Ms. Giles is quite convincing as a make a believe hooker - O'Keefe as pimp, not so much. When I looked up her biography, I found that, in addition to her articles on uber right wing Town Hall, she has a very interesting progenitor. Her real daddy is an interesting character and as the saying goes “the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree.”

Hannah’s Daddy is none other than Doug Giles, media award winner (?) and “theologian,” who has a show on “Clash Radio.” He also writes (such as it is) columns for Town Hall. Giles is a man’s man who fights the manly fight against teh gay - a fight which includes Obama's "gay agenda." In a Town Hall article in which he castigates evangelicals who voted for Obama and demonstrated that he knows at least one word in a foreign language he said this: “In less than a week after Obama’s swearing in, our nuevo POTUS unfurled his radically liberal abortion and family plans together with his juicy pro-homosexual agenda.” (Juicy?? Hmmm…) His next sentence was quite amusing seeing how his chaste daughter is playing a prostitute: “Good job, all evangelicals who voted for Obama, as these aforementioned ditties—from a biblical perspective—are about as sanctified as the Antichrist French kissing a crack whore in Bret Michaels’ hot tub.” (WTF?? And ditties???) More of Giles’ bizarro worldview, which would be worth a chuckle if it were just a joke and not the “real American” insanity that is promoted on Fox News and Fox Nation, is found in this incisive article...

Considering that a similar radical Christian, Pastor Wiley Drake, is praying for Obama’s demise, Giles exhortation to his readers (such as they are) is actually a bit frightening: “you must add to your repertoire of petitions you offer up to God Almighty what I like to call Dirty Harry prayers: radical prayers against the radically unrighteous direction our nation is headed. You heard me right. I said pray against this fetid mess… Theologians call these the imprecatory prayers, or maledictions. I call them Dirty Harry prayers, prayers to pull out and pray...”

Growing up with a testosterone infused “God’s Warrior,” who is cross between Mancow and Ted Nugent, might explain Hannah Giles' motivation which is certainly serving her well now. She and her partner (and certainly not in a sexual sense), James O’Keefe have a bright future as right wing heroes. Their costumes, performances, and the fine quality of cinematography in the videos show that they also have a future in political pornography - especially the kind peddled by Fox News...
