It was a fantastic show, listening to religious leaders pontificate on things they know so much about, like constitutional law and congressional procedure. And, of course, the persecution of Christians. (I dozed off a couple times, so I may have missed parts, but it seems we've started throwing Christians to the lions again. Or something like that.) Sadly, it was just one Sunday. "Oh," I thought, "why can't every Sunday by a Justice Sunday? It would be better than ten Super Bowls!"
Well, praise the Lord and pass the remote, because the FRC has just unveiled "Justice Sunday II." And in case you were worried that there might be some kind of sophomore slump here, that they'd just halfheartedly go through the motions in the sequel, let me reassure you with one image:
That's right. Former Senator Zell Miller (D-Thunderdome) is taking time off from his retirement duties (i.e. dueling uppity journalists) to turn this into "Justice Sunday II: The Wrath of Zell."
Outstanding. I haven't been this excited since I heard Corey Feldman was appearing in "Streetcar Named Desire" here in New York.
Update: In case Zell isn't enough for you, JSII will also feature perennial favorite James Dobson, former Watergate felon Charles Colson, anti-feminist Phyllis Schlafly, the always restrained William Donohue of the Catholic League, and music by Mr. Lee Greenwood. Wow.

Great post, but dammit that Zell is a scary-looking dude. As Wolcott might say, no way in hell is he paying a lot for this muffler.
Zell looks like he's about to zap his minions, emperor-style. Also, he could use a collagen injection.
What's scary is that these "Christians" don't realize that they've fallen by the wayside. There's no love in their words or actions.

True. For people who stress biblical authority, you think they'd try reading it. There are over 300 references to helping the poor and working for social justice in the Bible, and yet they've cozied up with the party of Big Business and tax cuts. The Bible calls homosexuality an abomination, yes, but it also calls shellfish an abomination. Twice.
As Woody Allen said, if Jesus came back to earth and say everything that's being done in His name, He'd never stop throwing up.
he's probably throwing up from anaphylactic shock as a result of eating shellfish....
