“…pray in the name of Cthulhu for the safety of our troops,…”

You haven’t read the Necronomicon lately, have you? Cthulhu isn’t a god you would pray to for safety.

Okay, I left out: continues and refines torture regimes, authorized assassinations of American citizens without due process, continues to support the mass murder of innocent civilians by bombing homes with drone bombers, ad infinitum. Yes, evil, wicked.

“Wicked? Okay the President has broken some promises and isn’t living up to our hopes, but ‘wicked’?”

1 : morally very bad : EVIL
b : disposed to or marked by mischief : ROGUISH
(MW 11th Collegiate)

Yes, wicked. Is utterly corrupt in action. Words do not match deeds. Perpetrator of fraud. Conspirator in massive redistribution of wealth and power to those who already have more than they need or handle responsibly.

One should be careful not to deny one evil in an attempt to portray something else in a negative light.

Wicked? Okay the President has broken some promises and isn’t living up to our hopes, but “wicked”? That’s kinda pushing it.

Yeah, let’s minimize Obama declaring that he can lock people up indefinitely without trial and that he can assassinate citizens who haven’t been found guilty of anything – nothing wicked about that since any complainers are just pouty because they didn’t get their unicorn and are extremists who are to the left of the left anyway.

It kind of makes you hope for lightning to strike right there during someone’s Big Speech about how god hates Amur’ca and will cause some kind of disaster to strike us because we don’t stand around on street corners praying enough.

They clearly haven’t noticed all the stuff that happened because Bush and Cheney loved Big Business more than they love anything else.

Here's a report from Truth Wins Out

Right Wing May Day Event A Bust Posted May 1st, 2010 by Wayne Besen Early this morning, I went to the heavily promoted, “May Day 2010: A Cry To God For A Nation In Distress.” It was organized by Janet Porter (formerly Folger in red jacket) who is best known for running the failed “ex-gay” Truth in Love ad campaign in 1998. The event was a bust. Less than 300 (not official count, but my own estimate) people turned out in front of the Lincoln Memorial in Washington today to hear a star-studded line-up of evangelists and right wing political leaders. Organizers claimed from the stage that the event cost $70,000, so they had clearly expected an impressive turnout. The big names included the Family Research Council’s Tony Perkins, Generals International’s Cindy Jacobs (yellow shirt), Porno Pete Labarbera, Bob Knight and Alan Keyes.
