Rachel is brilliant tonight.
Edited on Fri Feb-18-11 09:23 PM by highplainsdem
If you aren't watching her, catch the video on her site later. She concisely laid out Wisconsin's role in union history, AND exactly why the Republicans are trying to break the public employee unions -- they're the only groups still at all able to counter the political power of corporations and rightwing groups like the NRA and Chamber of Commerce.

8. The "Anti-Christ" Crap!
This is what I have been ranting about!! These "Rapture-ist" are thrilled at the possibility of the "End Times" happening in their lifetimes.

Every volcano, every violent riot, every flood, earthquake and hurricane, gets these SELF AVOWED "rapture-ists" more and more excited.

Help clean-up the environment? Help prevent climate change? Help the poor? Oh please, and get in the way of God's plan, no way.

I think their opinions and actions are suspect.

Does any one think the arrogant, hubris filled knuckle heads who believe they are among the "Chosen," would really care if Israel and Mecca were blown to kingdom come? It says in the Bible that the Temple in Jerusalem must be destroyed before the "Apocalypse" gets officially started.

It was reported on the far right on-line religious rumor mill, that "The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse" were spotted in the streets of Cairo last week!

Any-one who really believes this Anti-Christ stuff, and are in a position of power, are as dangerous as any Taliban Ranger.
