Praying with the KKK?
February 5, 2010 by James
Would President Obama speak at a prayer breakfast organized by the KKK? Would Jim Wallis and other “progressive” Christians attend?
Then what will they be doing on Thursday Feb 3 at the National Prayer Breakfast founded and sponsored by the notorious gay-bashing “The Family” fringe far right group? (I ask this as a practicing progressive Christian and repentant former religious right leader).
Yes, that’s the same folks who’s key members here and in Africa are mired in the Uganda kill the gays legislation!
Yes, that’s the same folks who long ago used their US government/hard right contacts to try and get the US Government to cozy up to fascist dictator-for-life Franco of Spain.
Yes, that’s the “C-Street” adulterers club in Wash DC that coddles far right philandering Republicans and protects them when they cheat on their wives, not to mention on their country by using their senator and congressmen members to export the worst of American fundamentalism abroad using quasi-governmental auspices.
These are the folks that the evangelicals and others have been in bed with for years at the National Prayer Breakfast.
Why?
It’s about access to power, stupid!
