The Rude Pundit - In Brief: Why the Religious Right Is Just Awesome
From the Family Research Council, a lesson in how to rip out your enemies' entrails and dance with them while howling like rabid coyotes at a blood-red moon:

"Gov. Spitzer, who is hailed for his public dedication to strong ethics, has actually built much of his political reputation as a bully towards pregnancy care centers and pro-life organizations and as a champion of abortion-on-demand and NARAL. As New York's attorney general, Elliot Spitzer spent taxpayer time and treasure attacking those who aid pregnant women. Shortly after winning the governorship, he pushed for legislation that would have made abortion in New York even more pandemic while stomping on the rights of religious providers like Catholic hospitals. In his time of need now he will likely turn toward his family; it's a great sorrow that so much of his career has rested on vicious attacks on family values."

Forgiveness and charity is for wusses, motherfuckers, FRC President Tony "Lookit Me, Ma; I's on the Lou Dobbs" Perkins says. Time to gorge on the meat of the fallen. Time to twist that knife a little more.

Somewhere in the sky, Jesus slapped his bruised forehead once again, with Mary telling him, "You know, you really oughta let that heal at some point."

Jesus just gave her a look that said, "Yeah, like, when?"

4. Um, isn't any statement about Jesus merely conjecture?
Shall we all just stop mentioning him now altogether since nobody knows what he thinks? (That would be fine with me.) Or is it only fundies who get to ascribe commentary to their imaginary friend?

P.S., Ever heard of satire?

6. Did you miss it?
He said something about how you were being very presumptuous to speak for Jesus. He was making a nuisance of himself in a lot of other threads, too.

7. "Abortion on demand." They just love that phrase.
Hey, if you can get a gun on demand, I think you should be able to get an abortion on demand...

12. Jesus embraced the whore Mary Magdalene
and said "May those without sin cast the first stone"! Such a simple, clear and succinct rebuttal...
