Why? Because Obama's not "pro-life". Yeah, like their death god is? Idiots.
One more thing: they call him "pro-death". Wrong. Pro-death would be a person who tries to convince the person to abort the baby, as opposed to saying: "It's her decision". That is "pro-choice". Something they refuse to acknowledge.
They want "pro-death"? Look at their war-mongering Bush gov't, who started a war based on the lie of weapons of mass desctruction. Or their own god, actions, who they defend no matter what.
To hell with quotes, just read it yourselves. Check out their recording of what they claim Obama will do once in office. I have no idea if that's in the proper context or not.
And, oh, look. They have a link to a voter's guide at the end of the article. Guess who set that guide up?

That's a relief! I was worried that I'd have to join some dumb church or other in order to vote for the superior candidate.

The question is: Are these skinheads-in-disguise a noticeable influence on the election or are they functioning as just the trivial lunatic fringe that they truly are?
Rove/Bush has worked hard over the years to bring "evangelicals" into the base of the Republican party, as well as redefine them all as "conservatives" but how much is this lunatic fringe mingled within that base? |
Diversity, independence, innovation and imagination are progressive concepts ultimately alien to the conservative mind.

If anything... They are scaring away more moderate conservative. As a result, their weight inside the party increase and the party has to go to hunt more members... More often than not, he will find them further on the right.
It is a self-feeding mechanism that brings the GOP more on more to the right... |
Look again at that dot. That's here. That's home. That's us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every "superstar," every "supreme leader," every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there – on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam.

Exactly. When Rove or whoever had the brilliant of bringing the really weird evangelicals into the GOP "mainstream," he/they built an unstable coalition of fundies, get-rich-quick plutocrats, and militarists.
It really was an awesome coalition, for its time, the NeoCons. But also freakish. The unique events of 9/11 (with the US being attacked at home by sure-enough anti-Western, anti-Christian terrorists) allowed a minority religious Right movement to leverage a traditionally minority party into a breathtaking degree of power over a frightened nation and a shocked world. But aside from a marriage of convenience, there really isn't any philosophical or special interest reasons for the elements comprising the NeoCons to hold together, especially when they've lost political power.
It's sort of like the tradition that vampires cannot enter one's home unless invited within. Too late now: The wingnuts were invited to the Party. The GOP is going to play Hell in trying to uninvite them.
Cut off from reality, the NeoCons are likely to go into a vicious cycle of ever more reactionary and bizarre Dominionist craziness, dragging the GOP with them.
