Cuccinelli to Address Extreme Wingnut Gathering

If there were any remaining doubt as to the extreme nature of Ken "Cooch" Cuccinelli's insane far right agenda, it should be eliminated by Cuccinelli's attendance at and address to the coven of loons and religious extremists who will be gathering on April 15, 2010 at Liberty University in Lynchburg, Virginia. The gathering, titled "The Awakening 2010" includes a veritable who's who of the Christian Right, the majority of whom are vitriolic gay haters and seriously challenged on issues of truth and veracity. That Cuccinelli will be amongst this group as a headlined speaker speaks volumes and none of it is good for those who believe in constitutional government and religious freedom and civil rights for all citizens. One can only presume that next we will see Cooch at Klan gatherings and white supremacist conventions. It's more than just a little frightening. Here are some highlights from Right Wing Watch:
*
Today, Liberty Counsel put out a release confirming that "Virginia Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli is scheduled to speak at 'The Awakening 2010' on Thursday evening, April 15 at Liberty University in Lynchburg, VA."
*
Cuccinelli will be joining a who's who of Religious Right leaders, including Andrea Lafferty, Wendy Wright, Richard Land, Tony Perkins, Kelly Shackelford, Ken Blackwell, Mat Staver, Rick Scarborough, Harry Jackson, Lou Engle, and even Cindy Jacobs.
*
To give an idea of just how whacked out some of these folks are, Jacobs has in the past given speeches about how she had an amazing visitation with God during which he showed her Seraphim and set her bedroom on fire, before she set about about casting out demons, lifting curses, and conducting faith healings of everything from AIDS to Hepatitis C to Glaucoma and even Cancer.

And these are the folks that Cuccinelli surrounds himself with. I'd love to see copies of his daily schedules and telephone logs so that Virginia taxpayers could see how much time I suspect he is spending on ultra-far right lunacy rather than important state business. I warned people just how unhinged Cuccinelli would be if elected and he is not proving me wrong. And Bob McDonnell thinks he and Cooch will convince progressive businesses and entreprenuers to move to Virginia? I think not.
