While the Neocon, Corporacon and Plutocon wings of the Republican Party appear to be coalescing around vulture capitalist, Mitt Romney, the Republican Theocon and InsaniTEA wings are appalled at the possibility that someone they consider a heretic might get the Republican nomination. They correctly recognized that splitting their support between three followers of Republican Supply-side Jesus (not the real one) was helping Romney, so they met this weekend to choose their unified anti-Romney savior.
Former senator Rick Santorum has emerged as the choice of more than 150 evangelical leaders who huddled at a Texas ranch Friday night to debate their preferred candidate in the GOP presidential race.
The move represents an eleventh-hour effort by social conservatives one week out from the crucial South Carolina primary to unify around a single candidate and blunt the momentum of former Massachusetts governor Mitt Romney, whom many evangelicals consider insufficiently conservative.
But in a sign that the effort may be too little too late, the leaders did not discuss any plans to urge former House speaker Newt Gingrich or Texas Gov. Rick Perry to drop out of the White House race, according to one participant — meaning that social conservatives could well split their support this year, just as they did during the 2008 GOP presidential primary.
“That was not even a part of the discussion,” Family Research Council President Tony Perkins told reporters Saturday afternoon when asked whether participants discussed any effort to push Gingrich or Perry from the GOP contest…

They picked the worst hatemonger in the bunch. Rick “Google Me” Santorum hates gays, black people, and women. He may also hate dogs, being so fixated on man on dog sex. 😉
Frankly, I think Republican Supply-side Jesus (not the real one) may well have misled these folks, because they have obviously slipped in the Santorum.

Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.
Indeed there’s enough santorum to need specially treaded shoes and slickers, gas masks and atomizers – at least for those of us who know better – I won’t offend by going into the bible this time – I’ll let the evangelical preach their gospel and let the world decide if muhammed or moses is better – I’ll opt for ghandi!
You know Lee, I think of Ghandi as the most Christ-like person I know of. He is one of my heroes.
I agree with Lynn.
You’re right on, Lynn!
Save us from these false prophets!
…and from prophets for profit!
As far as I’m concerned, Rick Santorum is a male version of Michele Bachmann, and is equally bat-shit crazy!
Guano Guy!
Jack, they were conjoined twins, separated at birth and one of them went on to have a transgender operation. Guess which one ? As they both shared a brain, it was divided between both of them.
Jack, given the choice, I think they would have preferred Batshit B!
LOL @ Lynn and Deborah!
There were seven dogs willing to testify about their forced relationships with Rick, but three commited suicide and the others died with suspicious circumstances.
Welcome Steve! 🙂
Hilarious!!
The entire shebang is bat shit crazy– a bunch of clowns , straight from the center ring– and Sanctus Sanctorum speaks straight evil– there is nothing wise or compassionate in him– It absolutely astounds me— I have been ” evangelical” all my life– but no more– I reject to my soul the ugliness being spouted form their mouths— If indeed ‘By their works ye shall know them” the entire bunch is heretical-
In my opinion- each and every one who preaches and practices this heresy– should lose their precious Tax exceptions-! They– IMO– are violating every Law relating to separation of Church and State-
Amen!!!!!
Lynn beat me to it!
Santorum is a coal-powered homophobic hypocrite, and will again cost the Republican party my vote as I go 3rd party or write-in candidate in disgust. I might consider voting for Paul or Cain, but never for such RINOs as Romney, hatemongering bigots as Santorum, or tiny-brained wolverines as Perry.
All right wingers should vote 3rd party.
Evangelical leaders? You call that leaders like that wanking fornicating Caine and the likes?
No thanks, my religion is to be nice to everyone and I don’t believe in the fairy tale and invisible entities religions invented by men.
Comtessa, that is how they refer to themselves and how the press refers to them.
TomCat — I think Republican Supply-side Jesus (not the real one) may well have misled these folks, because they have obviously slipped in the Santorum.
I couldn’t put it any better! AMEN!!!!! The Jesus I know is coming to clear the Republican/Teabagger temple!
If he does, it will be the second time.
