The [I]Reverend Pat Robertson
Jimmie Baker (yeah, bring him back and Tammie Fae’s eyelashes too!)

Could any of these guys be any worse than what we have as the absolute ruler and wacko-in-chief right now?

I just went to Family.org…..Dobson is all over this site….Here’s a testimonial…..The context is very similar to the young crusaders being nurtured at Jesus Camp.

Whodathunkit?

A couple of blips:
“his third wife”
“real-estate schemes”
“faith-based initiatives”
“gospel of prosperity”

ahhh, but it’s gawd’s will.

Steal from the poor
Enrich the Rich and Pious
