Some Christians get mad when Cheese constantly puts up threads about the wacky religious right.

But even the business community sees it. The rest of us, we see Gingrich and Palin, and Huckabee and go, 'oh dear god, there are people out there that would vote for these guys? They can actually get on TV, destroy history and logic, and achievements of the human race, and there is a large group of people that applaud them for it? Or at least think there is an argument behind all their superstitious speeches? They loudly decry knowledge either through sheer delusions of their own, or worse through political scheming for votes and they get elected?'
Right wing religious fundamentalism is a serious force in North America. In the world. And for all of those that say it's not part of their political party, or it doesn't paint them I ask them to open their eyes and really take a look around. And then, even if you still don't believe it's a problem, at least understand when some of us get so worked up about it.
This is a problem. And if your not speaking out against it (like so many moderate-fundamental Muslims in the middle of their problem right now) then you are a part of it.

Seems just like left wing spin. Every president has been some denomination of Christian, and I suspect that if a presidential candidate were to openly campaign as an atheist, he wouldn't get elected. You can't simply pick and choose here as this is not a left or right wing issue. Your post is baseless drivel.
