This is what scares us atheists!! This is an actual ad for candidate Zach Wamp for TN Governor. Warning!! May cause vomiting!

This idiot fundie ran for Governor of the state of TN. This represents everything that is evil to us atheists. It's at the very heart of what we feel is wrong with the world. The fact that this mouth breather had the balls to run this bewel she-ut on the air waves, and actually say what he says, gives me a sense of dread and foreboding that I can't amply convey. I know one thing, this stands for everything we atheists are fighting against. Ladies and Gentlemen, I give you Zach Wamp. Congressman, Gubernatorial candidate and MORON!



Well you were warned!
Oh yeah, he was thankfully beaten in the primary!

I sure hope this creature does not get his way!
Thankfully he was beaten in the primary! I encouraged everyone I know to go vote in the primary against this idiot.
This is revolting, as well as scary.........& I'm Canadian!!!!
Yeah, it's revolting to the core of my being. This is what we are all up against here. It is promising he was beaten. I thought for sure this would cinch it for him.
Oy...someone...please...just...put him out of his misery...and tape it..
"Our Judeo-Christian heritage," eh? Just what planet in a galaxy far, far away did THIS piece of work come from???
The real dread and foreboding is not him, per se, but the large number of right wing candidates running on this platform, and the even larger number of supporters they have: right wing evangelical Republicans, Tea Baggers, etc. He may be sincere, or just another lying politician trolling for votes from the uneducated, bible thumping, tambourine bangers.

And, there's nothing new about the lie he is spreading. He's mouthing the same message as a number of others of his ilk. The Texas School Board excising Thomas Jefferson from its curricula, and replacing him with Jerry Falwell. The verbal dribbling diarrhea of Sara Palin. The talking heads (actually, screaming skulls) of Faux News. Anything out of the mouths of Newt Gingrich, Glenn Beck, or Mike Huckabee.

While this clown may have been defeated, the control of 1/3 of the US Government (Congress), along with State Governors, state legislatures, and local school boards, will be decided this November.

The lie of the US being a Christian nation has been actively spread for a number of years now. Unfortunately that simplistic populist lie, coupled with the racist backlash of having a black president, along with tough economic times, is mobilizing those who look for simplistic and emotional, rather than rational, solutions to the problems we are facing. Americans really are no smarter than the German people of 1930.

"When fascism comes to America, it will be wrapped in a flag and carrying a cross." Attributed to Sinclair Lewis (Not his actual quote, but I still like it).
Yeah, the dread and foreboding was for exactly what you describe above. The coming of the religious zombies wanting to give not only their lives but this whole country to the invisible god in the sky.

As for the back lash, I guess I'm an optimist. I'm hoping it won't happen. I'm hoping that most Americans won't follow idiots like that douche Sarah Palin. What I am doing, is not being silent.
He sure looks like a bumbling idiot, almost like the ones in cartoons.
God wrote our constitution? I thought it was our forefathers!
Yeah and unless I'm totally blind or illiterate, god is mentioned exactly no where in the Constitution. Conspicuously so in fact!
To bad the nutjobs confuse the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution.
