It’s arguable, definitely, that The Fellowship, Hillary Clinton’s Capitol Hill prayer group umbrella organization, is worse than Barack Obama’s Rev. Jeremiah Wright.
Barbara Ehrenreich certainly makes that argument.
Associating with right-wing thugs as a para-religious, para-spiritual military backstop for our government’s doing the same in the 1960s and 1970s is odious enough:
But, given that Clinton has supported, strongly, the Defense of Marriage Act, she doesn’t rate that much more gay-friendly than Obama would come off as being, either. Maybe less so.
And, her religious patriotism, if you will, making her willing to support criminalizing flag burning also shows her commitment to civil liberties in general is thin, and perhaps driven by religious belief
Kathryn Joyce and Jeff Sharlet offer more about the group.
It’s probably time to put a new post or two up on my one other blog, about my strongly desired but sadly nonexistent Science and Reason Party.
