Republican Spokesman Praying for Obama's Death

After celebrating the murder of Dr. George Tiller, saying it was an answer to prayers, the good Rev. Wiley Drake (A Southern Baptist Church preacher) has now revealed that he is also praying for the death of the President. Yep. Rev. Wiley Drake (ironically a self proclaimed pro-life advocate) is praying for the death of President Obama.

According to the Associated Baptist Press - On June 2nd, 2009, on "The Alan Colmes Show" Drake commented (paraphrased):

that unless Obama repents, he is praying that God will kill the president. Drake said he believes that is what happened to slain abortion provider George Tiller, who was shot to death while attending church in Wichita, Kan., on Sunday, May 31.

In the Fox interview, Drake, pastor of First Southern Baptist Church in Buena Park, Calif., called Obama "a usurper" and claimed he is "not an American-born citizen." Challenged for referring to the president as "B. Hussein Obama," Drake denied calling him that because it makes him sound like a Muslim. "I call him that because it's his name," Drake insisted.

The hits just keep on coming from the far right.
I haven't heard anything forceful or convincing from the Conservative religious establishment or the Republican political establishment that would indicate that they want to distance themselves from Drake or any of the other hate mongers and extremists. There has been no serious pushback at all from other leading Conservatives/Republicans against these kinds of incidents. I take their silence as a backdoor endorsement....whether they actively endorse these sentiments or not. The silence is deafening.

But at least one Pastor is speaking out.

Hear the comments from the Fox Interview:

Pro-Life Nut Randall Terry Uses MLK to Support His Group

Then turns right around and gives a wink and a nod to the Murder of Tiller.

If I keep typing... i'll end up cursing in this post.

So i'll stop for now.

Homegrown Terrorism Strikes - Abortion Provider George Tiller MURDERED In His CHURCH

From The Wichita Eagle:

Suspect in slaying of abortion provider George Tiller being returned to Wichita
BY STAN FINGER AND JOE RODRIGUEZ

WICHITA - A suspect in this morning's fatal shooting of abortion doctor George Tiller is in custody and on his way back to Wichita, Wichita Deputy Police Chief Tom Stolz said this afternoon at a news conference.

The 51-year-old male suspect was arrested about three hours after the shooting without incident on I-35 in Johnson County, Stolz said.

Police did not release the suspect's name.

The investigation is in its "infancy stages," Stolz said. He said the incident appeared to be an isolated act.

Tiller, 67, was shot just after 10 a.m. in the lobby of Reformation Lutheran Church at 7601 E. 13th St., where he was a member of the congregation.

Stolz said Tiller was shot in the foyer of the church. There were three or four eyewitnesses, he said. Six to 12 people were in the foyer at the time of the shooting.

Two men attempted to apprehend the suspect, but he pointed a gun at them and threatened them before fleeing, Stolz said.

Police anticipate the suspect will be charged with murder and two counts of aggravated assault. Police will discuss with the Sedgwick County District Attorney's Office on Monday to determine if additional charges, including federal charges, are warranted.

Tiller was serving as an usher at the church, one of six ushers listed in the church bulletin. He was handing out bulletins to people going into the sanctuary minutes before being shot.

And will those that fostered the climate in which this man was MURDERED take RESPONSIBILITY for what they created?

Of course not.
