The Real Reason Republicans Need To Be Defeated

In the past 30 days, support for the Iraq War among white evangelicals has fallen from 70 percent to 58 percent. A new poll shows support for the war in Iraq is slipping among white evangelical Protestants, previously a key pillar of support for President George W. Bush. Via Juan Cole, we even find the evangelical preacher K.A. Paul traveling about the country telling everyone within earshot the real reason for the disillusionment. The Houston-based preacher said he believes that the Bush administration has delayed the second coming because U.S. foreign policy has blocked Christian missionaries from working in Iraq, Iran and Syria..."Somebody needs to say enough is enough," he said to worshippers who stood, waved and called out in support....Paul, who claimed to support conservative political leaders in the past, is launching "a crusade to save America from the wrath of God and Republicans abusing their power," according to his press materials...."God is mad at this country," Paul told the congregation. He described the war in Iraq as "unnecessary genocide." Can you say "Thank you Jesus!" "amen!" and "halleluja!"? Paul you may remember visited House Speaker Dennis Hastert's home earlier this month to advise the him to step down over the Mark Foley page scandal.
