Republican Religious Right: Our Troops Died for Nothing!
http://www.politicsplus.org/blog/?p=2619

The Republican Pharisees and Sadducees at the AFA do not represent the same Jesus that authentic Christians do.

Just how anti-Muslim is the AFA’s Bryan Fischer?

So anti-Muslim that he is now claiming that the entire Iraq war was an epic failure and complete waste of American time, money, and lives because we did not seek to convert the entire country to Christianity.

Fischer says that the only thing that kept Iraq functioning under Saddam Hussein was that "Christians to help him run the country Christians were the only decent, trustworthy, honest people he could find." When Hussein was toppled, it left Iraq in the hands of Muslims and "Islam simply doesn’t produce men with the kind of character and integrity needed to run a country."

Fischer says America has offended God by creating a new Islamic Republic in Iraq which, "without the stabilizing values and presence of the Prince of Peace," will ultimately collapse.

Therefore, all of our soldiers have died for nothing:

3. Think how much trouble the radical imams of Islam cause...
...and remember that the christian radicals here want the same things.

The difference is that our secular government keeps the upper hand and holds them back.

Sort of. Up till now.

Want to see stoning and eye-for-an-eye punishments in the US? Just let fuckers like this guy off their leash. Just let the christians make our laws. We'll be there in no time.

10. He's right and wrong:
1) The war was fought for nothing -- at least nothing worth fighting a war for. (he's partially right)
2) Big oil considers the war to have been fought for something: access to Iraq's oil. (he's technically wrong)
3) The war was not a Xian crusade. (he's crazily wrong)
4) The soldiers didn't all die for nothing -- many of them died to defend their comrades in arms. (he's pathetically wrong)

12. How come there are so many ignorant people in our country --
especially among those who are supposedly leaders in some capacity or other?
I find it mind-numbing!
