Kevin Phillips on Diane Rehm show made some interesting Jim Lehay

comments. Got me to thinking. There is almost no way to change the minds of the people who believe Lehay's books are non-fiction. really scary!

5. Did you know he grilled ** before the (s)election??

This is a rollingstone article from a couple of years ago. When I read it, I was struck by how much money and power these people have.

(snip)It might seem unlikely that the commander in chief would take his marching orders directly from on high -- unless you understand the views of the Rev. Timothy LaHaye, one of the most influential leaders of the Christian right, and a man who played a quiet but pivotal role in putting George W. Bush in the White House. If you know LaHaye at all, it's for his series of best-selling apocalyptic novels. You've seen the Left Behind novels everywhere..

(snip)That day, behind closed doors, LaHaye grilled the candidate. He presented Bush with a lengthy questionnaire on issues such as abortion, judicial appointments, education, religious freedom, gun control and the Middle East. What the preacher thought of Bush's answers would largely determine whether the Christian right would throw its muscle behind the Texas governor.
