1. Also before the 2004 selection he came up with this behind his pulpit
during church services.

(sic)"If I ever passed a liberal on the street dying of thirst, I wouldn't give them one drop of water . . . not one.

I wonder if he wished he had some water now???

11. I WISH. This was during the time they were sitting up their website
for the Old Time Gospel Hour on the Thomas Roads Baptist Church site, and they had all of his last months sermons uploaded but not organized. I was going to download it but it was late or we got company or something and I remember thinking, "I'll get it tomorrow." Within that amount of time, several sermons had been removed. Then I noticed the Old Time Gospel Hour on Sunday mornings was no longer live (meaning they were about a minute behind real time), and there was obvious editing. No more live slip ups. I think Jonathan, his preacher son, was having someone to start editing his father because he was getting waaaaaaaayyyyy out of hand with the remarks regarding liberals. You can go to The Liberty Journal and read some of his political preachings. www.nljonline.com/

Once they started editing everything, I quit watching the program every Sunday Morning. If you go to The Thomas Roads Baptist Church www.home.trbc.org/ website, they may still have his preaching archive up. You can listen through them, but I'll bet they've been edited or removed. One of his favorite sayings was calling NOW the National Organization of Witches. Once or twice I heard him mention Hillary Clinton as "Hitlery."

His son is apolitical so I do not think there is going to be anymore politics coming out of TRBC. Falwell's off the wall comments is what kept that church and his school in the news and I wonder if he did this on purpose to serve his purposes?
