I look on the article I shared as a "shot across the bow" of Republican Conservatism. Sometimes it takes a George Patton approach = put it loud and put it dirty and they will get it!
Like the rest of you, I don't ever want to get into the gutter, but sometimes it takes just that. My wife calls it "tree talk," but when you work with the kind of men I do it is not wise to divulge your clerical credentials at the beginning of a job!
I undersand that Kion Greek used in Jesus day was similar = language of the street. I have often wondered if Matthew 23 when he zeroed in on the fakery of the Pharisees was cleaned up a whole bunch. If "SOB" (Sweet Old Bob for the PC folks) was ever to be used by Jesus to communicate, it would have been right there as he flailed the Moneychangers from the Temple porch.
If words didn't get the message across, then actions certainly did! The problem with the CR Takeover is that most preachers don't know how to treat a junkyard dog = shoot him between the eyes before he grabs you by the arm and won't let go!
We have the same problem with Tea Party Republicans these days and sweet martiarcal Barbera Bush put is simple recently:
"This is the worst Primary Campaign I have ever seen!"
