Leading Republican Christian blasphemers

Salon

Scott Walker: The Wisconsin governor describes his presidential bid as “God’s plan,” explaining that his political decisions are guided by God, not voters. “My relationship with God drives every major decision in my life,” Walker explained in his first official appeal for donations. In a letter sent to supporters on the day Walker announced his presidential campaign, the ultra-conservative described his leadership as guided by religion rather than politics. Walker wrote. “My decisions are guided by my relationship with God — not by what might win me a few votes”:
My relationship with God drives every major decision in my life. Each day I pray and then take time to read from the Bible and from a devotional named Jesus Calling....I needed to be certain that running was God’s calling — not just man’s calling. I am certain: This is God’s plan for me and I am humbled to be a candidate for President of the United States.
John Kasich: During an appearance on NBC’s “Meet The Press” earlier this year, Gov. Kasich explained to host Chuck Todd that he was exploring what the the Lord wants before to deciding to enter the race:
My family is a consideration, and number two, the most important thing is, what does the Lord want me to do with my life? You know, he puts us on Earth, all of us on Earth, to achieve certain purposes, and I’m trying to determine if this is what the Lord wants, and I’m not going to figure that out laying in bed hoping lightning strikes, so I’m out there one foot in front of another. We’ll see what happens.
Ben Carson: “I believe God will make it clear to me if that’s something I’m supposed to do,” Ben Carson told Fox News last August, adding that he would run “if God grabbed him by the collar and asked him to run.”

These people could be in charge of America's nuclear arsenal?

It that thought doesn’t send chills down your spine, nothing will.

Want a more chilling thought?
The clown car as yet is merely hypothetical, however, in the real world Bibi Netanyahu Is in charge of Israel's nuclear arsenal.
Perhaps all of those prophetic Bible thumpers ought to give a casual perusal of Jeremiah 24---that's just for starters. Isaiah doesn't exactly prove too accommodating to all of this Evangelical revisionism, either---he lays it out right away from the first chapter. In short, little of what these idiots have to say has legitimate Biblical standing. That the Left has become so precious of a certain form of secularism, their rejection and general ignorance of the texts allows the clown car to keep chugging along.
and on it continues...
