On the way home, I was listening to NPR and an interview with "the leading evangelical" something or other of the nation talk about how this whole rally was meant to restore "civil discourse".

If this was supposed to be the 2010 version of the Boston Tea Party I am not impressed.

Yes, that was Dr. Richard Land, head of the Southern Baptist Convention. Apparently, our nation's downfall started in the 1960s when people decided that sexual liberation, minority rights, and peace were more important than the Southern Baptist Convention.

This is just the opening salvo. Next they'll be using club sandwiches to enforce their ideological antipathy toward bag tax. After that sneak attacks by their subs firing meat torpedos with mustard and relish. Lest you think this is wild speculation, I do not want to wait for the smoking bun in the shape of a mushroom melt.
