Here's an excellent post in today's Daily Kos about a Creationist who started a Dinosaur theme park in Florida and now is serving a 10 year jail term for failing to pay $470,000 in employee taxes on the grounds that he was employed by God and, therefore, he and his ministers were not subject to paying employee taxes:
"The Bigger Picture
All too often these holier-than-thou Bible-thumping sorts turn out to be rightwing cranks, anti-government loonies, tax evaders (as we have here), racists, and republicans, though I repeat myself.
I despise creationism as a vast waste of time. We shouldn't be entertaining discussions with people: Freedom of speech is not an excuse to waste time heating the planet with useless discussions of utter bullshit. There's nothing else to say.
Do we talk of turning lead into gold anymore? (Please say no).
The rightwing has clearly demonstrated beyond reasonable doubt they are seriously delusional:
*Birther nonsense: The preposterous idea that Obama somehow is not "really" an American.
*Deather Nonsense: The Big Lie that Obama's healthcare reform requires a death contract.
*WMD's in Iraq: FOX was responsible for spreading stories WMDs were found in Iraq, when none really were
*Reefer Madness: The idea that marijuana is somehow a dangerous threat to people when such is simply not provable.
*Denial of Global Warming: Just like it sounds. They are generally anti-science and anti-education as well.
Creationism: Magical thinking, at best.
All the same thing: utter bullshit with no defensible argument, beliefs held by a minority of people who are - often - actually intelligent and educated, yet they inexplicably hold ideas that are not connected to reality.
This man got his ass stuck in jail for 10 years for working like the Devil to avoid paying taxes. He lost. Bigtime. Because he believes erroneous stuff.
Many of these numbskulls are going to find themselves running afoul of the law simply because they are so full of false beliefs, propaganda, and horseshit. They are going to wander way over the line."

"The former employee also alleges that Prince "views himself as a Christian crusader tasked with eliminating Muslims and the Islamic faith from the globe," and that Prince's companies "encouraged and rewarded the destruction of Iraqi life."

And above is what happens when you farm out the military.
Good ol W, he's the president that just keeps giving.
Brandon, you could become a BlackWater employee. I hear they make about 150k per year plus.
Prince views himself as a Christian crusader
I wonder if Prince is a republican or a democrat? Certainly he's not a progressive as he's living in the past? Smells like republican to me.
So much for libereal tolerance.
How much tolerance do you have, Anon, for terrorists who nearly destroyed your country, and are still trying to bring it down?

ter⋅ror⋅ist
2. a person who terrorizes or frightens others.
GD CJP, I thought I agreed with absolutely everything you said, except the use of the word terrorist. Now I see you were right on that also. That's exactly what Bush and Cheney did. They terrorized the soccer mom's with the specter of another attack, just like the cons are doing now and trying to frighten others with the socialism and hitler crap. You're dead on CJP.
Cons suck.
I'm not sure what I think about libertarians but they have a familiar smell about them.
Dear dear Anon, so being a fiscal conservative, you must really, really, really love Bill Clinton, since he was the most fiscally conservative in modern US history. But instead most cons equate fiscal conservatism with Ronny Raygun and W. Ironic eh?
Reaper:
The flacks they are currently sending out to disrupt Democratic Town Hall meetings are another example of Conservative Terrorists in action -- today.
What worries me is Krugmans last line.

But by God, they are gd terrorists. They are a contrary bunch.
Do you think the cons know what they are doing, or do you think they're just that dumb? Combination of the two?
And our local con kooks don't sound especially dumb, like a lot of cons do, but just out of touch with reality. Brainwashed. Unable to learn from history.
DAMN you're stupid.
Thanks, that's a comfort, particularly when coming from someone that has been so pathologically wrong about everything for the last 8 years. You cons are very useful for discerning the truth. Just listen to what you say and then apply the opposite. Thanks for the compliment.
LMAO!
LMAO!

And a dumb ass it is. LMAO, LMAO, LMAO.
Im a smart ass. LMAO, LMAO, LMAO.
GD you cons are dumb. LMAO, LMAO, LMAO.
GD those Daily Kos guys talk about how dumb cons are. And they say it a lot. Sounds like a pretty smart bunch, and hardly a con in sight. Sent them scurrying I suppose, with tails tucked tight.
"Sent them scurrying I suppose, with tails tucked tight."

CJP, maybe we are going to not have any cons to kick around if we aren't nicer to them?
