Preaching for Crank, Pounding the Christian Coalition

Good lord, I am so sick of these christan coalition fruitcakes I could scream, or worse.

Colorado Confidential :: Preaching for Crank, Pounding the Christian Coalition:

The acrimony between the campaigns of 5th Congressional Republican candidates Jeff Crank and Doug Lamborn is reaching a zenith, with the two camps continuing to skirmish over a Christian Coalition mailer that accused Crank, along with Lionel Rivera, of being aligned with the 'radical homosexual agenda.'

The charismatic leader of the 14,000-member New Life megachurch has even entered the fray. During his July 23 Sunday sermon, Pastor Ted Haggard, who is also the president of the National Association of Evangelicals, accused the Christian Coalition of being un-Christian, practicing yellow journalism and twisting the facts.

Haggard stopped just short of outright endorsing Jeff Crank from the pulpit, which would have been a violation of federal law that prohibits churches from endorsing specific political candidates.
