First, the good news: If Pastor Maury Davis is right, our elections are so tamper-proof even God can't rig them. Now, the bad news: Obama is out of line with God's plan. In a Tennessean piece yesterday on local clergy reaction to Obama's victory, Davis—pastor at Madison, Tenn.'s ginormous Cornerstone Church (135,000 square feet of fire and brimstone!)—said this: "I don't believe that a man who has Barack Obama's values is in line with God's plan." This from a man who served eight-and-a-half years in a Texas prison for first-degree murder, presides over a church that had significant ties to an alleged Ponzi scheme that bilked investors out of $18 million, and heads up Maury Davis Ministries, where he peddles, among other things, his four-part series of sermons titled Hard Questions—Real Answers. Islam…The Evil Religion. And he thinks Obama isn't in line with God's plan? Hello pot? This is kettle. You're...oh, never mind.

Tom, I remember that story, but never saw the Wonkette headline. Amazing! I liked it so much that I went ahead and put a hyperlink in your comment to make it prettier.
My favorite paragraph:
"He's a Murderer. First Degree, bitches!"

Something about the name Maury. Davis, Povich, Wills...they're all nuts.

Great story! I won't even go into how much of the hate he preaches is hypocritical, that should be common sense. But, just in case.
Lev.19:18 "Love thy neighbor as thyself."(Muslims and "queers" included)
-Jesus
Matt.5:44 "But I say to you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you"
-Jesus
John 8:7 "Let he who is without sin cast the first stone."
-Jesus
If you preach the testimonies of Jesus, you should try to watch the things you say about others.
