Republicans’ private terror: Why they despise the modern American state — and embrace fanaticism

Correct. about 2 days ago, I had the unpleasant experience of hearing Barney frank, in an interview on NPR, impute to Christians and conservatives mere “hatred of gays” for our stance and acts in defense of marriage. he not only opposes us, he claims to know our ‘real” motivation, and it’s not what we say it is-defense of the family, of society, etc-oh no, Sodomite Frank knows better than that, he can see into our hearts and divine our true motivation, which is nothing but blind hatred. However, he also unwittingly admitted that even back when the sodomites were saying “we just want government out of our bedrooms” that they knew that their endgame was, as he put it, to make it impossible in “polite society” to even voice principled opposition to the sodomite agenda. Many of us already knew that back then, so I suppose our divination of their hearts was more on target than their divination of our hearts. Of course, we have the advantage of discernment through the help of the Holy Spirit, to know evil when we meet it. They have only satan, the father of lies. Satan even lies to his acolytes.

“....Jim Crow managed to find a new habitat in the early 21st century Republican Party.”

“They may hate Barack Obama, but what they really hate is the modern American state.”

STILL hung up on the race thing...
Obamas ideals are un-American, the man is not hated, just his political beliefs. If you want an example of hate see the left and GW Bush. They can keep this “modern American state”, I’ll take freedom and independence any day.

I would suggest that the intellectual poseur review the Manchurian Candidate. He has the plot scrambled in his less than agile mind.
