The brilliant George Carlin once said, “If you can nail together two things that have never been nailed together before, some dumb schmuck will buy it from you”. Nobody demonstrates this better than the Not So Fun Fundamentalist Right crowd.
Let’s watch as they pull out the hammer and pound a few nails:
Bryan Fischer Among the Cannibals The American Family Association’s Backward Christian Soldier, Bryan Fischer, stands in front of a billboard-sized copy of the Constitution to proclaim Conservatives should be foursquare in favor of discrimination. In the speech he compares gay Americans to, “people who…eat the faces off homeless people.”
Apparently, Fish didn’t hear face-eater Rudy Eugene’s mom describing her son. She said he was, “a church boy” and Miami police confirmed it. Eugene was carrying a Bible when he stopped for lunch at the Donner Party Buffet. He was apparently straight and had a girlfriend who “felt safe” with him because he was so religious. The Fischerman is no friend of the heaven-sent, people-eating grizzly bear either.
Know Your Enemy: Lesbian Jane Lynch! All you Glee fans out there turn off your sets! Televangelist James Robison is convinced the show will destroy America! And here I thought it was the blatant ripoff of the equally lame series Fame. Damn that lesbian, Jane Lynch!
A Profile in Courage Pastor Curtis Knapp of the New Hope Baptist Church thinks LGBT folks have it too damn easy. They’re just like incestuous people and polygamists and so should be put to death, “We punish incest, we punish polygamy and various things. It’s only homosexuality that is lifted out as an exemption.”
Even though incest and polygamy aren’t capital offenses, too damn bad. Off ‘em anyway. But, the good pastor is a little squeamish. When asked on CNN if he should be killing gays he said, “No, I’m saying the government should. They won’t, but they should.”
So Sayeth the Dean of Wingnuts…Of course, what’s a round-up of the odd without Pat Robertson, the Dean of Wingnuts? The man who can pray away hurricanes compares polygamy, bestiality, and pedophilia among many other things.
Beasts Making the Beast With Two Backs Ah, the gay-begets-bestiality cabal is in full voice. Pastor Tim Rabon, of Raleigh’s Beacon Baptist Church, believes in the Rick Santorum man-on-dog sex theory. The pastor thinks redefining marriage is the Devil’s Dog’s work. “What is stopping them from refining marriage from a person and a beast? We’re not far from that.”
Tamara Scott, Michele Bachmann acolyte, doesn’t see dogs in the picture, but the Eiffel Tower? That’s another story. BTW, Michele was pretty worried about being shipped off to a FEMA-run concentration camp once upon a time.
Heil Hitler! Bryan Fischer being Bryan Fischer, he gets two mentions. He believes almost the entire Nazi Party was gay. I’m not sure exactly how that would work when gays are such a small percentage of the population and that Hitler considered himself Christian and wasn’t gay and the Nazis were famously homophobic.
Nothing Hugs Like HuggiesOne of my favorite things nailed together is Pastor Patrick Wooden’s contention that gay sex causes gay men to need diapers or butt plugs. Aside from the fact he seems to think the real reason men can reproduce is because semen and sh*t don’t mix. He had no opinion on whether straight people, some of them surely Christian, engaging in anal sex would leak like a meal filled with Olestra.
I assume he also opposes sex education.
All of these people’s boss might have been a Jewish carpenter, but I’m skeptical he built the sort of house they have in mind. It would’ve had the worst foundation imaginable, paper-thin walls they’d blow out with their own unprayed away bloviations, and a roof that even a mother would wish they jump from.
George, you’re right. These boobs keep nailing things together and dumb schmucks keep tossing the money in their collection plates.

Nice Catch this reminds me of when Newt blamed liberal values for that woman who drowned her kids and it turned out she was molested by her Dad a Pat Robertson for President volunteer.
We found out later Newt’s kids were not taken care of after the divorce and gis church held a collection for them.
Typical GOP move finding a horrible crime and then trying to link it to the Left. Then it blows up in their faces.
So his comments got his group classified as a Hate Group.
Dr Fischer has what medical facts to support this view?/S

Mitt must love conservatives like him:)
Unlike Polygamy where society has an interest in keeping women happy and just what man can keep 2 women happy. Or incest where genetic concerns make having children a concern just what harm do Gays of age do to us or each other?
Animal cruelty laws that the Left supports but the GOP wants to do away with. Also consent how do you get consent from an animal no consent no marriage you can’t marry a person in a coma for example.
JC hung out with 12 guys who were not married for years, he hung out with the poor the diseased leprosy was the AIDS of the time, fallen women and tax collectors something no GOPer would do.
I think no mention was made about Gays because the Romans and Greek conquerors of Israel before them were pretty ok with being Gay and the Israel’s realized quite rightly that it was wrong to try and force their ideas about God on people who had just conquered them.
Notice that Christians do a ton of things Jews don’t like like eat pork, work on the Sabbath etc I don’t recall Jesus saying ever well eating Pork and working on the sabbath I will give you but being Gay no way!
If JC never preached against it its ok and that includes abortion which the Greeks and Romans certainly know how to do.
Heck any sheep herder knew what plants to keep the sheep from eating to avoid miscarriages it was common knowledge back then.
I’m sure the Jewish Sheep Herders with mistresses gave their girl friends those herbs when they did not want their girl friends getting pregnant.
Remember the punishment for being an unwed mother was stoning.
