Obama - First a Muslim, then a black liberation Christian, a Marxist, a Fascist, and now... a Pagan?

[ck4829]

Washington Times columnist Jeffrey Kuhner, who has already dubbed President Obama an anti-Christian Leninist and called for civil disobedience to fight his administration, today writes that Obama’s support for environmental protection shows that he has “embraced radical environmentalism – a form of neo-paganism,” and is “behaving like a quasi-religious zealot.” Kuhner was responding to the claims of Rick Santorum, along with other Religious Right leaders, who contend that support for defending the environment somehow hurts humans and is its own religion. “The green movement - exemplified by the hoax of man-made global warming - has degenerated into a pseudo-religion,” Kuhner maintains, “Environmentalists worship Gaia, Mother Earth, turning it into a secular goddess.”

1. Their hate short circuits their brains.

Hanging on to rage, like drinking poison and expecting someone else to die.

2. Just word games...

a combination of Gingrich's idea to attach negative labels to your opponent and Rove's tactic of projecting your own weakness onto your opponent:

"...a form of neo-paganism...behaving like a quasi-religious zealot".

3. Crap! Now I'll have to re-schedule the coven meeting

at Camp David and call it by a different code name.
Pagan Of The United Sorcerers isn't going to cut it.

4. They are all just trying to play on others ignorance

and irrational fears. Anyone capable of intelligent, independant thought knows that Obama is not muslim, socialist, communist, marxist, liberal, pro- LBGT, anti-gun, pacifist or an environmentalist or any of the other labels the RW puts on him.

5. Tea Bagger: "Obama is a no good for nuth'n, cotton pick'n ni.... nazi! Yah, a Nazi!!!"

[Kurmudgeon]

6. Right wing is throwing every thing they got at Obama, it's just not sticking.

It shows just how desperate they are getting.

[Enrique]

7. Obama is in the Green Movement?

he is a radical environmentalist?

[The Genealogist]

15. Unless he says "drill, baby, drill," he is a radical environmentalist

Such is the hyperbole this person and other RWers use.

[hootinholler]

8. Do these people actually understand the meaning of the words they use?

Apparently not.

Secular Goddess?

Radical environmentalism? So Obama is out spiking redwoods?

10. They don't. So they sound like a bunch of third graders

flinging personal insults.

[CJCRANE]

12. I'm sure we could come up with a RW insult generator...

you just need a bunch of prefixes...

quasi-, anti-, pseudo-, neo-, post-

a bunch of adjectives...

radical, extreme, hardline, severe

a bunch of nouns ending in -ist or -ism...

Christianist, Marxist, Leninist, Fascist, Socialist, Environmentalist, Paganism, Intellectualist.



Mix them all together and hey presto!

Radical Post-Christianist pseudo-Marxist dedicated to hardline quasi-Environmentalist pseudo-Intellectualist Paganism.

[nobodyspecial]

13. They just test words when strung together

that frighten people.

Secular = not god-fearing
Goddess = a woman in charge of the universe
environmentalism = can't rape and destroy the planet
radical = violent hippies

[undeterred]

9. You forgot mulatto.

[tanyev]

11. He's very versatile.

[Morning Dew]

14. They'll be down to calling him a "scruffy looking nerf-herder" by convention time.

But what else would you expect from the sleestak party.

[Rex]

16. Sure why not! Hey, wasn't he a Sith overlord at one time?

And he ruled Japan as a Shogun (time machine)...yeah, sure I know I heard someone say that so it must be true!!!!
