My Son Has Read All Of Those Left Behind Books! Does He Know All About This?
Cheney to address top secret conservative policy group

http://rawstory.com//news/2007/Cheney_to_address_top_secret_conservative_0928.html

An ultra-secret conservative group -- so secret that members don't even use the group's name in communications -- will feature Vice President Dick Cheney as a speaker at a meeting in Utah today.

"Cheney will address the fall meeting of the Council for National Policy, a group whose self-described mission is to promote 'a free-enterprise system, a strong national defense and support for traditional Western values," according to the Salt Lake City Tribune.

Founded in 1981 by Tim LaHaye, the co-author of the popular post-apocalyptic Christian-themed Left Behind books, the group holds confidential meetings three times a year attended by a small but powerful cadre of top conservatives.

1. Well, if anyone can deliver Armageddon, it's Mr. Dick.
The "Left Behind" series: otherwise known as "Nancy Drew and the Keys to Heaven".

2. LaHaye started CNP with RevMoon who also funded LaHaye thru his lean years.
Alot of people who read those books have no idea that they were written for political manipulation not salvation.

In the late 70s, LaHaye considered himself an expert in mind control - and we all know that Moon leads an enormously influential cult and media empire that has been a staunch ally of Poppy Bush since the 60s.

Just coincidence?

How many Left Behind believers know that RevMoon has been key to the development of that series - behind the scenes, of course.

4. I've told a couple of fundies about the LaHaye-Moon connection, and you
can almost see their eyeballs start to spin, because they've been told "Left Behind books good, Moonies bad" all their lives.

3. More importantly, does your son realize they're FICTION?
Yes, Cheney is part of the Republic/Christian death cult, probably because he knows he can't take it with him and would rather smash it all than let anybody else have it when he's gone.
