Howard Dean Called 'Baby Killer' At Health Care Town Hall Aug. 25,2009
"Our goal is a Christian nation. ... We have a biblical duty, we are called by God to conquer this country. We don't want equal time. We don't want pluralism. ... Theocracy means God rules. I've got a hot flash. God rules."
"At the core of Obama's health care policy is the murder of babies and the murder of the elderly...If this bill passes and they expect us to pay ... there will be horrific consequences to pay."
Quotes from Randall Terry Religious Right leader
Dan Savage:
"When you have a party that claims to speak for God, claims that God is on it's side, the rhetoric heats up and the anger heats up. It's not just a battle of ideas and positions and what's good for America and bad for the country. It's a battle of what God wants and what God doesn't want and you're, and it's easier to demogoge about your enemies and despise and to dehumanize in this really personal and vicious way, and the religious right is fomenting this kind of hatred in this country, and at our peril. I really do think that the Michele Bachmann's of the world and the Glenn Beck's of the world are actively, consciously or subconsciously trying to get, I'm just going to say it, they are trying to get the President killed. That's why they're setting this up as kill or be killed arguments. He's gonna kill you grandma, pull the plug on grandma, death panels children have to go in front of. This kind of rhetoric, this paranoid style on the religious right, from the Birchers to the Birthers doesn't usually end well, and we, somebody's gotta put the brakes on it, and unfortunately, in the Republican party, there are no adults left in the room, there are only the Michele Bachmann's and the Glenn Beck's and the Rush Limbaugh's running the show."

Keith Olberman, Dan Savage -- Christian Theofascists and traitors
RevKentHovind September 02, 2009
An excellent summation of Christian Republican theofascism and treason against America in the rise of the right wing domestic terrorist Third Reich once again.
The Religious Right 's goal is not just to put an end to late term abortions but all abortion but this is only one issue in which they are involved. In each issue they often claim they only want their side to be heard and acknowledged such as Evolution versus Creation Science or Intelligence Design or silent prayer in the public schools or that they are against sex education of children prior to junior high but in the end once the stated goal is achieved they press for further compromises eventually chipping away at one institution after another til they have achieved their ultimate goal. As Dan Savage points out the members of the Religious Right views all issues in terms of good versus evil so there is no room for compromise. To Evangelical Fundamentalists or other conservative Christians each battle is seen in apocalyptic terms because they are on God's side and those who oppose or disagree with their views and their agenda are on the side of Satan and the Anti-Christ.And so for them the Endgame they are working towards is to create a Theocracy where America is ruled by strict Biblical based Laws.
The problem the Right has is that Obama is trying to pass legislation to reform the health care system which they characterize as some sort of overarching socialist plot to turn America into a collectivist communist state ruled over by an authoritarian regime.
But the Bush regime as we recall was not interested in listening to critics of their policies or to make compromises with them. Didn't Bush ignore public opinion polls and said it doesn't matter what the American people think because he talked to God and in the end he President Bush was the decider. So Bush and his cronies ignored the Generals, the Pentagon , the intelligence community because he knew in his gut or his heart what God meant for him to do so he tortured and abused prisoners and based upon concocted phony intelligence combined with a massive well-orchestrated propaganda campaign he invaded Iraq and committed other various crimes all with the peoples and the Medias approval. And by the way wasn't it the Saintly George W. Bush who said The Constitution is just a piece of paper.
But none of this matters to the conservatives and their fellow travelers at Fox News and CNN because Bush was their man in the white House surrounded by "real Americans" driven by an ideology Neoconservatism which they said would help America's economy to grow in leaps and bounds and that through their policies true democracy would spread throughout the Middle East ushering in aGolden Era of propriety and peace.
Now the Republicans are out of power which they have still not come to grips with. Being out of power instead of reaching across the aisle and working seriously and honestly with the Obama administration they became the Party of No but now they have become the party of obstructionism doing whatever they can to bring the government to a standstill and to foment anger and fear of the Obama administration to encourage civil-disobedience, civil unrest, an insurrection . The Republicans and the Religious Right and the conservative movement are actively promulgating various "Conspiracy Theories" about Obama and his administration to stir things up even more in their desire to topple President Obama. There is little reason to believe that these propagandists believe in any of these conspiracy theories ie Birthers Fema Concentration Camps,New World Order, health care being used to kill off old people , the infirm the mentally challenged etc.but they will use anything that comes down the pike to use to rile up average Americans and the various dangerous groups which have been brought into their movement ie militias, patriots, nativists etc.
Many of their spokespersons or leaders are just angry as hell and they don't care if violence erupts for they will blame that violence on President Obama and his evil communist style policies . In one sense the fear is for those of us who have watched the Religious Right Movement and the Far Right groups over the last three decades or so is that this may be the moment they have been gearing themselves up if they found themselves in a situation in which they had lost their political power and their influence on the majority of the American people.
It was the right-winger Tea Party supporters made up of Birthers or those who believe Obama is a socialist, a communist or a fascist and that Obama is not a "real American" and is anti-American and UnAmerican who turned the Town Halls meettings into farce.They did everything they could to push their agenda by not allowing the policians to have reasonable discussion about health care reform. Instead the halls were filled with Republicans and Health insurance industry agitators who just shouted they didn't want socialism and if someone asked a real question they booed them.
We can speculate that as these Town Hall meetings continued and were seen on TV and Youtube and were discussed in detail on dozens of right-wing blogs and websites that this led to more confusion over the whole issue and so average people with possibly genuine concerns who got riled up started to go to these meetings to express their concerns which in large part could be traced to the misinformation, exaggerations, conspiracy theories and such being promulgated by the Republicans , the health insurance industry and various anti-Obama groups. But this as we know is how propaganda campaigns work the propagandists or public relations personnel and the lobbyists push their message and even if the message has little relation to the truth it can soothe peoples anxiety over an issue or increase their anxiety depending on what the propagandists or advertisers or other message handlers for a particular group or political party or company or industry want.
Part of the problem now is having unleashed this anger and suspicion and hatred and paranoia about the Obama administration will this lead to "unintended Consequences" which the conservatives didn't expect or do they even care . As Limbaugh said shortly after Obama became president is that he did not want Obama's government to succeed but rather to fail. Limbaugh revealed how angry and pissed off he was that Obama had become president with his revealing homophobic prison-like imagery in which he said that just because Obama is black we the American people are being told to bend over and grab our ankles- that is allowing Obama to figuratively rape/ sodomize the American people. This is no mere disagreement about policies but something deeper and more insidious . Limbaugh, Beck, Sean Hannity, Lou Dobbs & Fox News and a large segment of the American people feel this kind of betrayal with the election of Barack Obama and they are still eleven months after the election seething with anger and hatred and anxiety that America is being radically changed.
And so now let's look at one of these radical Religious Right campaigners Randall Terry who used to lead the Pro-Life /anti-abortion organization "Operation Rescue" who has re-emerged on the scene with his group OverturnRoe.com-Randall Terry and his organization Operation Rescue Insurrecta Nex.

Randall Terry Takes His Show On The Road
Submitted by Kyle Right Wing Watch August 24, 2009
Last week we mentioned that Randall Terry and his band of merry pranksters were heading out on the road for series of "kill granny/kill babies" healthcare reform protests. Well, they are now underway:
Terry, 50, and his staffers readied their props: plastic toddler dolls, a trick knife, a Halloween syringe, a bottle of fake blood.
"We're going to be executing babies," he joked as the trio, trailed by another staffer with a camcorder, stepped out onto Salem Avenue in Roanoke toward Sen. Mark Warner's downtown office.
"Terry Recruits A New Army of Anti-Choice Warriors" by Kyle at right Wing watch on June 15, 2009 -
The Randall Terry press conference we covered last week was actually the lead-in to an anti-abortion leadership training seminar that he conducted over the weekend featuring Alan Keyes and Norma McCorvey for some fifty people from around the country at which Terry announced the formation of a new organization to be known as Operation Rescue Insurrecta Nex, as the Washington Times reports:
Randall Terry, one of the best-known abortion opponents in the U.S., launched a new version of Operation Rescue this weekend, calling on activists from across the country to press on despite bad publicity over the May 31 slaying of abortion doctor George Tiller.
Forty-five people from 16 cities met at the Crystal City Doubletree hotel Saturday for a hastily arranged "emergency pro-life training conference" to recruit more foot soldiers in the battle against abortion.
"The freeing moment will come when you decide to take a bullet for this movement," Mr. Terry said in a small ballroom watched over by one security guard. "Then you can't be bullied and intimidated into silence anymore."
Mr. Terry has renamed his movement Operation Rescue Insurrecta Nex - the latter two words meaning 'insurrection against death' in Latin - and is trolling for new affiliates.
"My mission is to raise up a new generation," he said, "to recruit them, train them and unleash them."
He brushes off criticism that activists like him created a climate that goaded the suspect in Dr. Tiller's slaying into action.
"You can't work with me if you can't say abortion is murder and child-killers are murderers," he said. "You've got to be prepared to take the heat over those words. The true terrorists are those who reach into a woman's womb and kill her child."
His opponents "refuse to admit that abortion is the cauldron from which evil flows," he added. "George Tiller reaped what he sowed. He was a murderer."
"The backstory on Randall Terry's new organization" Jill Stanek.com June 15,2009
Randall Terry emerged as a charismatic pro-life leader in the 80s, helping advance the "rescue" protest mentality.
The Washington Times reported yesterday on a "hastily arranged 'emergency pro-life training conference'" held in DC Saturday of "45 people from 16 cities... all white, nearly all over 40 and mostly Roman Catholic." Speakers included Norma McCorvey and Alan Keyes.
At this meeting Terry announced the formation of a new group, Operation Rescue Insurrecta Nex, "the latter 2 words meaning 'insurrection against death' in Latin - and is trolling for new affiliates," according to WT.
Randall Terry is no longer with Operation Rescue which it appears is now called Operation Rescue/Operation Save America but this could change since there is some sort internal fighting over the name between Randall Terry and the current leader of the organization.
Anyway here are a few choice bits from their website:
Operation Rescue/Operation Save America
Operation Rescue/Operation Save America unashamedly takes up the cause of preborn children in the name of Jesus Christ. We employ only biblical principles. The Bible is our foundation; the Cross of Christ is our strategy; the repentance of the Church of Jesus Christ is our ultimate goal. As the Church changes its heart toward unborn children, God Himself will hear from heaven, forgive our sin, and bring healing to our land.
We believe that Jesus Christ is the only answer to the abortion holocaust. It is upon our active repentance in the streets of our cities that the Gospel is visibly lived out. We become to the church, to our city, and to our nation living parables which rightly represent God's heart toward His helpless children.
There are no cheap political solutions to the holocaust presently ravaging our nation. Like slavery before it, abortion is preeminently a Gospel issue. The Cross of Christ is the only solution.
Chet Gallagher Responds to Lutheran Church Ordaining Practicing Homosexuals Chet Gallagher with foreword by Rev Flip Benham • 8/27/2009
The Evangelical Lutheran Church of America (ELCA) voted last week to accept non-celibate clergy members and lay leaders who are in “life long” and “monogamous” same-sex relationships. This is an abomination. Just listen to the pleasant words used to describe the sin of homosexual sodomy. This is a 4.6 million member Church. It is the third largest protestant denomination in America making up 2% of our population. It is in absolute apostasy to the Word of God. Interestingly, as this convention was convened in Minneapolis/Saint Paul, a completely unexpected weather anomaly struck the city. A tornado was unleashed causing minimal damage to the city but broke in half the steeple of the Evangelical Church. “Can you hear me now?”
Summit Abortion Mill Closes in Vegas – Battle Turns to Sister Mill in Bridgeport
Marilyn Carroll with foreword by Rev Flip Benham • 8/20/2009
Our faithful contingent in Bridgeport, Connecticut, took its place at the gates of hell in Las Vegas, Nevada, at the Summit abortion mill this July. God did exceedingly abundantly above all any of us could ask or imagine. The Summit abortion mill in Las Vegas has just closed its doors for good. Praise the Living God!
Now they return to the battle at the Summit mill in Bridgeport and Jesus continues to bless their efforts.
After Vegas – More Miracles in New Orleans
Dale Sochia with foreword by Rev Flip Benham • 8/10/2009
The saints of New Orleans have been storming the gates of hell (Local abortion mills) for years. Thousands of babies have been saved, and many folks have given their hearts to Christ as the Church of Jesus Christ allows its theology to become biography in the streets. Led by Pastor Bill Shanks, the number of abortion mills in New Orleans has shrunk from eight in 1994 to two at present. One of the two remaining abortion mills bought an old church building, renovated it, and made it into a place to kill babies. Brother Bill, Pastor Dale Sochia, and all of the saints in New Orleans send us this report of God’s working in New Orleans. Enjoy!
and so it goes,
GORD.
