adical Cleric Jerry Falwell said some surprising things on Meet the Press yesterday, starting with this:
I’m a Democrat. I don’t vote Republican. I vote Christian.
A Democrat? Oh really? Seems to me that just the other day the porcine pastor said he was an independent. Rev. Falwell should stop thumping his bible, open it up and read these Biblical passages.
Falwell’s assertion that he was a Democrat becomes more than passingly strange given this interchange that occurred a few moments later:
MR. RUSSERT: On “Desperate Housewives,” Newsweek says that the creator of “Desperate Housewives” is a conservative, gay Republican.DR. FALWELL: Well, the fact that he’s a gay Republican means he should join the Democratic Party.
Hmm, the Reverend Falwell believes that gay Republicans should become Democrats? Just like the reverend himself?
Of course, maybe it isn’t so strange given that on the very same program Falwell invited the Reverend Al Sharpton on a date:
DR. FALWELL: You still owe me a steak dinner.REV. SHARPTON: I will give you a steak dinner. We bet on the election. But you will get a steak dinner, but you will also get a lecture on civil liberties while we eat it.
DR. FALWELL: But I’ve waited three weeks.
While Falwell’s open-mindedness in dating a black man may be commendable, his obsession with the steak dinner seems, for a man of his, um, stature, both unhealthy and indeed un-Christian.
