This is what it's really all about:

Though prohibited by tax law from engaging in overt campaigning, Robertson and Falwell are considered staunch allies of the Bush White House, and their ministries were responsible for adding millions of votes to the GOP column. The war against Falwell and Robertson is on going and began a long time ago.

Our government does not force people to like Mohammad and Islam NOR Jesus and Christianity. Equally, it doesn't inhibit the free practice of these religions either. Get past it lefties. Falwell and Robertson can diss Mohammad just like the Hollywood left disses Jesus. It's called freedom. The government is not allowed to get involved in an official capacity. Perhaps Jesse Ventura should be banned from government for his hateful words about Christians. Maybe the Hollywood God haters should be denounced by the left? I mean, what is this country coming to? I think we should ban all words negative towards Christ. That'd be cool (except that I believe in freedom and Christ wants people to choose his forgiveness, not accept it through jihad).

The estimates of Evangelical Christians voting straight Republican tickets this year were some 25 million. Add the other votes, mostly Republican, but split ticket nonetheless, and it's easy to see why the Democrats and Muslims are targeting Falwell and Robertson.

The left are a gaggle of paroind mindless dimwits. Leaving aside the stupid assertions that Christians would kill all the Muslims if given the chance, in this article, he asserts that Falwell, Robertson, etc. produced MILLIONS of votes for Bush....Falwell and Robertson do NOT command anyone. Christians vote as they chose, they do not blindly follow TV evangelists to the polls....besides, where is the evidence that there were MILLIONS of votes produced by Falwell and Robertson....like so much of what the left says, the exgerations are extreme....Twenty years ago, Ted Danson said the oceans would be "dead in 10 years". Thirty years ago Newsweek Magzine warned that there was a new ICE AGE coming and conservatives and republicans were blocking efforts to do something to stop it.
