Why Rod Parsley is a jerk
You all know what I think of Rod Parsley, but here's another reason to hate this guy.
Can you believe a politician of any stripe would be seen with this guy? I hope everybody in Ohio realizes the likely republican candidate for governor is good friends with this divisive twit.
Ok I hate Rod Parsley. Glad I got that out.
Another thing that happened this week, I was at a chamber of commerce lunch, and a young republican-looking guy got up to explain to us how we should vote in the next election, and while he was talking, he kept referring to the "Democrat Party." Man that chaps my hide. It's not the Democrat party. Its the Democratic party. A person who is a member of the Democratic party is referred to as a Democrat. I have heard this misuse of the english language so often that I am beginning to believe its one of the coded messages we hear so much about.
- Maybe saying "democrat party" gets you into the special republican clubs.
- Maybe its a very sophisticated propaganda technique that the always-on-message right wing are using to disassociate the Democrats from the word democratic, which of course, in a democracy, might be taken to be a good thing.
- Maybe I am just a picky jerk who hates the misuse of the english language. (or more accurately, what I believe to be the misuse of the language.)
Well there's one thing I'm sure of, and that's Rod Parsley is a jerk. I've never heard him refer to democrats that way- wait -there was one time, but I dont think he said democrat party, it was more like demonic party...
This summer, Rod Parsley, pastor of New Harvest World Church in Canal Winchester, whose sermons are broadcast on 1,400 television stations nationwide, published a best-selling book, “Silent No More.”
Parsley wrote that, “Allah is a demon spirit,” Islam is “a flawed religion,” and “America was founded, in part, with the intention of seeing this false religion destroyed.” Among his friends and supporters, Parsley counts Ohio Secretary of State and 2006 gubernatorial candidate Kenneth Blackwell. - Columbus Messenger

Parsley...it's not just for garnish anymore...
You know, you have to love one thing about old Rod. He is such a lightning rod (pun intended) for hate that he removes all chance at credibility with any thinking individual. He, like many other from the extreme fringes of the right mistake Islam for extremist wacko Islam. It is much the same for any other faith, Islam is just the one front and center at the moment. There are extremist sects claiming to be Mormon that practice poligamy (a practice ended in 1890 by the actual church and a reason for excommunication now). There are extreme branches of Pentacostal that play with vipers and drink poison. Rod is an extreme branch of whatever the hell he is. We are not out to kill Islam. Just Radical Islam. A job at which we are failing miserably by the way but that is fodder for another rant.
For the record, in case anyone asks we actually live in a Republic, not a Democracy...(laughing while running away from the hail of bullets from the Democrats...oh wait, Democrats support gun control (which to me means using both hands) *LOL*.)
*P.S. sorry, couldn't resist trolling for flamage there.
I can't believe this, but yesterday, when Tom Delay (Hammertime) gave his post-perpwalk speech, he blamed his problems on ...
"The Democrat party"
Just for that, I hope he goes to prison.
