Sunday Reflection

Let's reflect on this tweet from a certified homophobe and self- certified "Christian" who thinks light refracted through water vapor somehow has religious meaning:

Worst example of cultural appropriation ever: LGBTs stole the rainbow from God. It's his. He invented it. Gen. 9:11-17. Give it back.

"He invented it."  Patent search!

Fischer's ign'ant tweet was occasioned by the death on Thursday of artist Gilbert Baker, the man who created the rainbow flag in 1978.

We like this response (and there are many hundreds in Fischer's twitter feed as well) that treats this twit with all the seriousness he deserves:

@anamariecox God was heard saying "They're always after me lucky charms" as the gays ran off with his rainbow.

American Talibangelist: Latinos Are "Socialist By Nature"

Ladies and gentlemen, we present the unchastened id of the New Confederate/ Rethuglican Party, Bryan Fischer of the "American Family Association" in a rant about why we need to keep immigrants out of America (hint: it has something to do with voting):



Notice a pattern emerging here? Moochers and makers anyone? 47 percenters? It seems one of the lessons some on the Rethuglican right have taken from the election results is that "too many of the wrong people voted." You know who "they" are: African Americans (a.k.a., "urban voters"), youth, single women, poor people and, of course, Latinos -- i.e., the people who "want stuff." Look for more of this horseshit racist and misogynist analysis coming from the right as a palliative for their sense that white people they've "lost America."

Of course, this wouldn't be the first time Fischer has proven himself to be a racist, xenophobic moron. Oh, no.

From Soup to Nuts

Frothing fundamentalist Bryan Fischer of the American Family Association has uncovered a secret plot to impose Sharia law in the United States!! The plot involves the introduction of 15 Campbell's Soup flavors that are halal-certified!! Sweet Jesus on a cracker, call out the militia! Wait... what? The soups are only being marketed in Canada? You mean our kindly neighbors to the north? Are they aware of this imminent danger?!?

Watch out Canada, lest you become Canuckistan!
