Klingenschmitt Prays About Flyover Denial

By Ed Brayton

The Pentagon's denial of a request for a flyover of a fundamentalist Christian rally in Idaho has uber-nut Gordon Klingenschmitt babbling his imprecatory prayers again. Here's his latest:

Let us pray. Almighty God, we pray you rebuke the cowardly bureaucrat in the Pentagon, (whose phone number is 703-695-9664), who decided for the first time in 42 years to deny a request for a military plane flyover at the "God and Country Rally" honoring our veterans in Idaho, because the event might "appear to benefit a religious or ideological movement." Since when are God, Country, and Veterans groups too ideological? God we recall Revelation 21:8, the cowardly...their place will be in the fiery lake of burning sulfur. In Jesus name, Amen.

You can almost sense the erection Gordo gets when thinking of his enemies burning in hell.
