Former evangelist: Religious right is ‘trawling for assassins’

Vierotchka
MSNBC's Rachel Maddow is concerned that President Obama's trip abroad has served to bring out "the unhinged among the president's critics."

Not only have the Wall Street Journal and the hosts of Fox News been issuing their usual dark mutterings, but a new slogan has began appearing on bumper stickers, tshirts, and even teddy bears: "Pray for Obama: Psalm 109:8."

That psalm reads, “Let his days be few; and let another take his office. Let his children be fatherless, and his wife a widow."

    • Interesting how the Pop Christian Religionists always take scripture verses out of context. Verse 8 in Psalm 109 is a part of a prayer for retribution by God against the wicked, decietful lyers who are, without cause, attacking the righteous man.

    • You have to give credit to Evangelical jihadis, though. Compared to Islamic jihadis, EJs only hate two out of every three Americans.

    • This is so disgusting. I can not find the words to describe how disappointed I am with the people (and I use the term loosely) that came up with this idea. It is sad beyond words.

    • Pray for Obama: Psalm 109:8."

      That psalm reads, “Let his days be few; and let another take his office. Let his children be fatherless, and his wife a widow."

      Can't even formulate the words to describe how sick this makes me feel.
