The Daily Plunge

Liberals are in a tizzy about Steve Anderson. Anderson is a crazy pastor from some wacko church in Arizona. In a recent sermon he talked about how he “hates Barack Obama.” Evidently, Anderson prays that the President gets brain cancer and dies. Obviously, Anderson is on the political and religious fringe, and no rational person would sit and listen to a pastor pontificate like that.
The coverage of Anderson is fascinating, though. What if Obama’s church of 20 years had received the same coverage after 9/11? According to Jeremiah Wright, the United States got what it deserved. Just think, the current President of the United States thought Wright was a great man and didn’t have to pay a political price for it. Can anyone imagine a scenario where a Republican 2012 presidential hopeful was a member of Anderson’s church? What if this presidential hopeful wrote a book that was named after one of Anderson’s sermons (Working title: I Hate Barack Obama)?
Crazy churches exist in a nation of 300 million people. They exist all over the world. Typically, our nation doesn’t elect leaders who are dumb enough to listen to hate speech every Sunday, but there’s nothing typical about how President Obama was and is covered by the press. Pastors like Anderson and Wright should be universally condemned. The left turned a blind eye toward Wright and is now up in arms about some pastor no one cares about.
