Obama Will Destroy America!

By Ed Brayton

As the election draws closer, the right is getting more and more shrill and ridiculous in its declarations against Obama. Here's the latest from Donald Wildmon, sent in an email to supporters:

*If the liberals win the upcoming election, America as we have known it will no longer exist.* This country that we love, founded on Judeo-Christian values, will cease to exist and will be replaced by a secular state hostile to Christianity. This "city set on a hill" which our forefathers founded, will go dark. The damage will be deep and long lasting. It cannot be turned around in the next election, or the one after that, or by any election in the future. The damage will be permanent. That is why it is so important for you to vote and to encourage friends and family to vote. This is one election where your vote really counts.

Aw come on, Donald. Just say it. Obama is a minion of Satan. You know you want to.
