Wow, an evangelist, bible thumping Christian extremist calls for Biblical values to be followed in America (as they mostly were, or given wide acceptance by, the population for some three hundred years after the continent was settled), and we are supposed to be offended or surprised?

Is it exceptional that some right-wing politicians court votes from the kinds of evangelical Christians who sprout this stuff (think their gerrymandered districts might have many such voters? Naw.) appear with or endorse Farrah?

All you “big tent” guys on this site, ain’t there room in the GOP for the religious right? Christian social conservatives work hard for the party and vote. S’amatter, you just don’t want to have anything to do with a party which includes the likes of THEM (apologies to Groucho Marx), or you think the GOP needs tolerant and accepting people in the party with which YOU approve? Impressive.

Such a surprise that the GOP even advertises on such sites. Perhaps the party wants the votes of social conservatives? Ya think? The way Democrats want leftists’ votes? Must be a novel concept that there are extremists in BOTH parties, huh?

You think everyone who visits Farrah’s site agrees with all his positions? Hell, I visit a lot of sites for information and am often appalled by extreme positions, some of which even occur at LGF (shock).

Much ado about nothing. You would think that intelligent people (that includes religious people) cannot find areas of common agreement, despite their religious and social positions, to work together for a common cause. Hey, doesn’t that sound suspiciously like the definition of POLITICS?

There is plenty of intolerance to go around, and there is plenty of hate on Gay, Lesbian and anti-religious/secular humanist sites. Don’t pretend that only your position defines tolerance.
