44. Activist (Randall Terry) Begins Senate Campaign to Oust King
http://www.theledger.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20050623/NEWS/506230418/1004

"JACKSONVILLE -- The battle over Terri Schiavo's life and death will now be fought in a Republican primary between an antiabortion activist who became her parents' spokesman and a state Senate leader who helped block a bill aimed at keeping the brain-damaged woman alive.

Randall Terry, who founded the antiabortion group Operation Rescue and helped lead the effort to reinsert Schiavo's feeding tube, officially launched his GOP primary campaign Wednesday to unseat former Senate President Jim King.

Terry, with about 25 supporters standing behind him, said King no longer represents the Republican base. King was one of the nine Republicans who teamed with Democrats to block a bill in the last legislative session aimed at keeping Schiavo alive."

Here's some relevant past quotes from Randall Terry:

"Let a wave of intolerance wash over you. I want you to let a wave of hatred wash over you. Yes, hate is good.... If a Christian voted for Clinton, he sinned against God. It's that simple.... Our goal is a Christian Nation... we have a biblical duty, we are called by God to conquer this country. We don't want equal time. We don't want Pluralism. We want theocracy. Theocracy means God rules. I've got a hot flash. God rules."



"When I, or people like me, are running the country, you'd better flee, because we will find you, we will try you, and we will execute you. I mean every word of it. I will make it part of my mission to see to it that they are tried and executed... If we're going to have true reformation in America, it is because men once again, if I may use a worn out expression, have righteous testoserone flowing through their veins. They are not afraid of contempt for their contemporaries. They are not even here to get along. They are here to take over... Somebody like Susan Smith should be dead. She should be dead now. Some people will go, "Well how do you know God doesn't have a wonderful plan for her life?" He does, it's listed in the Bible. His plan for her is that she should be dead."



"What it is coming down to is who runs the country. It's us against them. It's the good guys versus the bad guys. It's the God-fearing people against the pagans, and some of the pagans are going to church."



I'm shocked. SHOCKED!!! I tell you to find out he's running as a Republican in Florida.
