Lots of things to do this morning, so no time to elaborate my views on what I just read, but here's two quotes with links, so you too can feel the sinking sensation in the pit of your stomach...
via RAW:
US House Representative Wally Herger, of California’s 2nd congressional district, expressed “enthusiastic approval” of a town-hall attendee who described himself as a “proud right-wing terrorist,” newspapers in northern California report.Doesn't that make you sick to your stomach?...
“Amen, God bless you,” Herger reportedly replied to the comment. “There is a great American.”

The Dembski fellow he mentions, by the way, is the same "Professor" at Southern Baptist Theological Seminary who requires online trolling to pass his courses, as I'd blogged about previously....the training at the seminary is aimed at producing infantry for a religious war against science and reason; proof of this, and in Dembski's own words, lies in another of his exam questions for the same course:
You are the Templeton Foundation's new program director and are charged with overseeing its programs and directing its funds. Sketch out a 20-year plan for defeating scientific materialism and the evolutionary worldview it has fostered if you had $50,000,000 per year in current value to do so. What sorts of programs would you institute? How would you spend the money?
