McCain eats his greens

With all the hand-wringing over Barack Obama's largely innocuous former pastor, some perspective is called for. And brother, all you have to do is look at Rod Parsley, who's been a key liaison between Dubya and the more hardcore Evangelicals, and who could potentially be an even bigger cheese with John McCain in charge. A pleasant looking man, one who could be Ronald McDonald with the right touches of makeup and wig. Not, however, really keen on homersexuals or your namby-pamby separation of church and state.

One of Hot Rod's cuter statements involves the Rival Franchise.

I cannot tell you how important it is that we understand the true nature of Islam, that we see it for what it really is. In fact, I will tell you this: I do not believe our country can truly fulfill its divine purpose until we understand our historical conflict with Islam. I know that this statement sounds extreme, but I do not shrink from its implications. The fact is that America was founded, in part, with the intention of seeing this false religion destroyed, and I believe September 11, 2001, was a generational call to arms that we can no longer ignore.

America was founded with the intention of destroying this false religion? Damn those forgetful Founding Sitcom Dads. They forgot to put the word "Islam" in the constitution. In fact their entire contribution on religion consists of brief unhelpful tidbits such as this:

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances.

See? Not even a full sentence. So you really have to read between the lines to suss out their intention to crush Mohammedism once and for all. Now that Parsley has cracked that one, maybe he can dedicate his mind to the hidden meanings in the work of Quentin Tarantino.
