Prepare For A Good Smiting, You Heathens!

First, the folks toss the kooks out of office. NYTimes (11.09.05):

"All eight members up for re-election to the Pennsylvania school board that had been sued for introducing the teaching of intelligent design as an alternative to evolution in biology class were swept out of office yesterday by a slate of challengers who campaigned against the intelligent design policy."

Then another kook delivers an ecclesiastical warning. People for the American Way (11.10.05), via TheCarpetbagger:

"'I’d like to say to the good citizens of Dover. If there is a disaster in your area, don’t turn to God, you just rejected Him from your city.

And don’t wonder why He hasn’t helped you when problems begin, if they begin. I’m not saying they will, but if they do, just remember, you just voted God out of your city. And if that’s the case, don’t ask for His help because he might not be there.'"

Robertson tells Dover, PA citizens, after the election: "Don’t turn to God if you need help"

Pat. This man wanted to be your President.
