You're probably already aware of this, but I'll say it again anyway: John McCain picked Sarah Palin in large part to appeal to a class of extremely disturbed people, aka the Republican Party's "base."
One exemplar is Pastor Grant Swank, who takes the term Orwellian to new lows in identifying himself as a "Christian." Swank is an inexhaustible fount of hatred, as evidenced by his own bio:
He currently writes a column for RenewAmerica.us, MichNews.com, Magic-City-News.com, AmericanDaily.com, NewsByUs.com, The Conservative Crusader.com, PostChronicle.com, TheConservativeVoice.com, Republican and Proud.com, FaithFreedom.org, Conservative Posts.us, ArriveNet.com, MosqueWatch.blogspot.com, EzineArticles.com, Chalcedon Report, and others.
It is a sad measure of his insidiousness that almost all of the top results obtained by Googling him return links to others speaking approvingly.
Fortunately, not everyone is unaware of what slithers around in the slime that makes up so much of the rightosphere. World O' Crap has been keeping an eye on this guy for a while, while maintaining far more of a sense of humor than I can.
I say, as an atheist, bless them. Now go read their latest: None Dare Call It Aphasia.
