    They made a deal with the Devil - actually two of them. When they forged a pact with the crazy evangelicals, but also forged an alliance with what would constitute most of the teabaggers and qtards back when they made common cause with the Birchers - they thought they could contain that toxic material. They thought they could just calmly collect their vote every election cycle and keep the howler monkeys and the christofascists at bay.

    Now the xtian nutcases and the teabaggers are basically running the show. And even a christofascist like the weird little man that is Mike Johnson is not enough for them…
