Dean's statement is technically inaccurate
The Republicans (including Franklin Graham and Pat Robertson and all their other ministers)are opposed to everything for which Christ stood. Therefore the terms anti-Christian or Anti-Christ are technically more accurate.

So, I would suggest that next time he refer to the GOP as the party of the White Anti-Christs.

"The Christian Wrong."

The problem with Dean's statement is he used the term "Christian" with no qualifier. He didn't frame the issue or the term.

4. Pat Robertson etc. have made personal fortunes exploiting the
the name of Jesus. bush was reelected in part by exploiting the name of Jesus. It is the oldest con in the book.

5. They're not AntiChrists, they're pseudoChristians
Big difference, not the least of which is that pseudoChristians are hypocrites, while the AntiChrist is not. In that sense, they are worse.

Peace.
