The American Taliban is a reference to American Christian fundamentalists that inflict their religious views on others through government decree, in the same way that the Taliban government in Afghanistan operated in the form of a repressive theocracy. The American Taliban put the Mullahs in Iran to shame. In fact, ironically, the Mullahs in Iran would humor the Taliban in Afghanistan as being too fanatic.
But they exist. And they exist inside the Republican Party. Oh, Mitt Romney might seem moderate; but in fact the Republican Party is now totally infused by the American Taliban. You don’t believe me, just judge for yourself. These folks are all staunch Republicans …. Mitt Romney Supporters. These people hate Iranians, hate Muslims, hate immigrants, and Mitt Romney pandered to them all through out the primaries; and if he gets elected he will support them and reinforce them – he has to. So forget about Mitt Romney, look at the people he has to pander to….read what they say. These are the American Taliban….
Ann Coulter:
“We should invade their countries, kill their leaders and convert them to Christianity. We weren’t punctilious about locating and punishing only Hitler and his top officers. We carpet-bombed German cities; we killed civilians. That’s war. And this is war.”
“Not all Muslims may be terrorists, but all terrorists are Muslims.”
“Being nice to people is, in fact, one of the incidental tenets of Christianity, as opposed to other religions whose tenets are more along the lines of ‘kill everyone who doesn’t smell bad and doesn’t answer to the name Mohammed'”
Randall Terry:
“Our goal must be simple. We must have a Christian nation built on God’s law, on the ten Commandments. No apologies.”
“I want you to just let a wave of intolerance wash over. I want you to let a wave of hatred wash over you. Yes, hate is good…Our goal is a Christian nation. We have a biblical duty, we are called by God to conquer this country. We don’t want equal time. We don’t want pluralism.”
“I don’t think Christians should use birth control. You consummate your marriage as often as you like – and if you have babies, you have babies.”
“When I, or people like me, are running the country, you’d better flee, because we will find you, we will try you, and we’ll execute you. I mean every word of it. I will make it part of my mission to see to it that they are tried and executed.”
“There is going to be war, [and Christians may be called to] take up the sword to overthrow the tyrannical regime that oppresses them.”
Jerry Vines:
“They would have us believe that Islam is just as good as Christianity. Christianity was founded by the virgin-born son of God, Jesus Christ. Islam was founded by Muhammad, a demon-possessed pedophile who had 12 wives, the last one of which was a nine-year-old girl.”
Jerry Falwell:
“The Bible is the inerrant … word of the living God. It is absolutely infallible, without error in all matters pertaining to faith and practice, as well as in areas such as geography, science, history, etc.”
“If you’re not a born-again Christian, you’re a failure as a human being.”
Jimmy Swaggart:
“Evolution is a bankrupt speculative philosophy, not a scientific fact. Only a spiritually bankrupt society could ever believe it…Only atheists could accept this Satanic theory.”
“Sex education classes in our public schools are promoting incest.”
“Raising your children under Americanism or any other principles other than true Christianity is child abuse.”
Micheal Savage:
“Oh, you’re one of the sodomites. You should only get AIDS and die, you pig. How’s that? Why don’t you see if you can sue me, you pig. You got nothing better than to put me down, you piece of garbage. You have got nothing to do today, go eat a sausage and choke on it.”
Henry Morris:
“When science and the Bible differ, science has obviously misinterpreted its data.”
Bailey Smith
“With all due respect to those dear people, my friend, God Almighty does not hear the prayer of a Jew.”
Bob Dornan:
“Don’t use the word ‘gay’ unless it’s an acronym for ‘Got Aids Yet'”
David Torsch:
“Sodomy is a graver sin than murder. – Unless there is life there can be no murder.”
Fred Phelps:
“American Veterans are to blame for the fag takeover of this nation. They have the power in their political lobby to influence the zeitgeist, get the fags out of the military, and back in the closet where they belong!”
J.B. Stoner:
“AIDS is a racial disease of Jews and Niggers, and fortunately it is wiping out the queers. I guess God hates queers for several reasons. There is one big reason to be against queers and that is because every time some white boy is seduced by a queer into becoming a queer, means his white bloodline has run out.”
