The war against terrorism, likewise, has given us a new term, "Johnny Walker," with which to refer to Islamic fundamentalists in America who would destroy their own country and "kill" fellow citizens in the quest for self-righteous spiritual purity.
We need a term to describe Christian fundamentalists who would, in effect, do the same thing. How anyone in their right mind, and in light of current events, could believe that America would be better off if George W. Bush had not been elected President of the United States is beyond me.
First, he uses Democrat ad agencies full of campaign spies. Then he lets them waste millions producing TV commercials unworthy of a used car lot, and mishandles their placement. He also took no successful advantage of few modern 'Narrowcasting' techniques. He had no strategy for coping with vote fraud and didn't even alert the public that it was planned in California, Pennsylvania, Missouri, etc. when every Freeper worthy of their salt knew damn well what was going down.
Bush won despite Karl Rove, the idiot savant of the Political Strategy game.
Must have been divine intervention.
In 1996, there was a Republican conservative running in my state assembly district who was pro-choice, against a VERY liberal Democrat. We had a solid shot at the seat...
Until the local "pro-life" activists decided to push for a American Independent candidate who had NO chance of winning the election, but managed to split the vote. The result was that we got a pro-abort, pro-gay-marriage, tax-and-spend maniac in the statehouse.
The pro-life crowd then had the gall to BRAG about what they had accomplished--they said that they "sent a message" to the local GOP.
Well, the message that the local GOP got was that the pro-life community were a bunch of spoiled children, and began working diligently to purge these folks from any important position in the party.
Meanwhile, the homosexual and abortion agenda continues to advance smartly in the statehouse.
Nice move, guys! With friends like y'all, we don't need enemies...
