PEOPLE WE ARE UNDER THREAT BY CHRISTIAN FASCISTS!! WE ARE THE WEIMAR REPUBLIC! PEOPLE PLEASE TAKE THIS SERIOUS!!!

-- GOP Rep. Steve King at a 2010 Tea Party Rally opposing the Affordable Healthcare Act in front of Congress

Our job is to reclaim America for Christ, whatever the cost. As the vice regents of God, we are to exercise godly dominion " over our neighborhoods, our schools, our governments, our literature and arts, our sports arenas, our entertainment media, our news media, our scientific endeavors -- in short, over every aspect and institution of human society.

-- D. James Kennedy, Coral Ridge Ministries Pastor, at a "Reclaiming America for Christ" conference in February 2005

We will not try to reform the existing institutions. We only intend to weaken them, and eventually destroy them.

-- A Manifesto from Paul Weyrich's Free Congress Foundation

The current government shutdown is a foretaste of the radical right's deadly serious agenda to take sole power, irrespective of their increasing unpopularity and irrespective of the supposedly sacrosanct rules, principles, laws, and customary ways of doing things in this country. Their targets for overthrow include the Constitution's separation of church and state as well as all of the institutions and arenas of society. This is their attitude, about which they are entirely sincere: "We want it all and we are not going to stop until we get it, because God's on our side and anyone who stands in the way will be beaten to a pulp because we are the lambs of Jesus."
