Randall Terry to rally in Savannah (antigay)
http://www.savannahnow.com/stories/080103/LOCRANDALLTERRY.shtml

Operation Rescue founder Randall Terry, known nationwide for his anti-abortion crusade, is bringing his latest cause to Savannah later this month.

Terry has launched an anti-homosexual marriage campaign that will include creation of a new organization and a series of events.

The events, called "Impeach the Twisted Six," are a series of rallies and press conferences calling for impeachment of the six U.S. Supreme Court justices who Terry and others believe have paved the way for homosexual marriages through a recent decision.

The first rally is Aug. 9 in Jacksonville and the second one will be Aug. 16 in Savannah, which was chosen in part because it is Justice Clarence Thomas' hometown.

1. I'm surprised the Christian Right will still listen to him.
He made some "unChristianlike" decisions not too long ago and had a fall from grace."

2. A "hasbeen" in my book.
I thought so anyway. Hadn't heard anything in the press about him for years now. Figured like most holier-than-thou types he got caught sleeping with the sitter or something and couldn't show his face in public.

At least this will distract him from the other fruitless crusade in his life - haunting women's health clinics.

3. Good ol' Randall Terry...
his name makes me think of when I was in high school... every Saturday morning my friends and I did clinic defense, protecting women seeking reproductive services from Terry's Operation Rescue freaks.

5. Terry clutching for the ghost of past glory
Gee Randall, I've never heard of anybody having to have an abortion as a result of homosexual relations. Seems to me you should be all in favor of gay sex.

7. Remember American Beauty the movie?
This guy is a homophobe and a misogynist who if I remember correctly from Susan Faludi's Backlash, was a stay at home husband.

He has serious issues, as many of the self ordained sages preaching from the pulpit from the fanatic christian right. seriously sociopathic twistin up the bible to justify murder and hatred.


What I fine white male christian role model!

11. Meathook Up My Rectum (or..there's always room for Jello)
The meathook of Randall Terry
Plowed up my rectum
Agh!
The snout of Jesse Helms
Fouling everything I read
Agh!

Gored by the PMRC
Parental advisory
Clean white songs for mommy
Or you're banned in the U.S.A.

Agh!
Such a pain in the ass
A big fist of cement
With Joe McCarthy's name attached
A lair of white bread worms
Gnaws my spine

Is that a cattle prod in your pocket
Or are you just glad to see me?
Agh!
Desires tied in knots of pain
Tighter, tighter, going insane
Agh!

Afraid to think
Afraid to screw
I hear batwings in our bedroom
Voila! There they are-
Bloodsuckers for decency

Vampires on the take
World's fattest rattlesnakes
Moving closer to the kill
Where have I seen those eyes?

I hate their God
And it hates me
A cop up in heaven
Raining Holy-Roller hell on earth

One by one fish hooks creep in
Five year mission to get under your skin
Wrap around your brain and stem
Pull your soul apart from within

Inside
Inside

They bite my mind
Bite my mind
Bite my mind
Bite my mind

Out of the closet
Into the fire
Zero tolerance for life
Will I ever feel free
To be free...?

13. Some thoughts Randall Terry has shared with the world


(snip) "I want you to just let a wave of intolerance wash over you. I want you to let a wave of hatred wash over you. Yes, hate is good... Our goal is a Christian nation. We have a biblical duty we are called by God, to conquer this country." - Randall Terry, Founder, Operation Rescue

"When I, or people like me, are running the country, you'd better flee, because we will find you, we will try you, and we'll execute you. I mean every word of it…I will make it part of my mission to see to it that they are tried and executed." - Randall Terry, Founder, Operation Rescue (snip)
http://www.tfn.org/religiousright/scary/ownwords.htm

Intolerance is a beautiful thing...There are people that are politically correct that want to say the cardinal sin of the hour is intolerance and I think that is a bunch of junk."


"We want our nation and all its institutions to be self-consciously built on the laws and principles of God's Word...We are at war -- a cultural civil war, a war of allegiances. If righteousness is going to prevail, if paganism is going to be turned back, then we must move to restore this nation to being a Christian Nation."

14. Terry is a stain on my hometown
This area of NY can boast Rod Serling but we also hatched Randall Terry.

Terry's a classic - never wanted to actually work for a living, tried selling used cars (he bombed). I first met him when he auditioned for a band I was in. He couldn't play guitar either. Then he tried selling us Shaklee products and we sent him on his way.

Then he caught on to the wave of "Christian Conservativism" - very lucrative business in the 1980's and, eventually, proved to be just as morally bankrupt as the rest of them.
