Appearing before the Republican Women of Bossier with Sen. David Vitter (R-LA), Rep. John Fleming (R-LA) cast the November elections as a choice between godlessness and Christianity. He also called bipartisanship impossible. "We have two competing world views here and there is no way that we can reach across the aisle -- one is going to have to win," Fleming said. "We are either going to go down the socialist road and become like western Europe and create, I guess really a godless society, an atheist society. Or we're going to continue down the other pathway where we believe in freedom of speech, individual liberties and that we remain a Christian nation. So we're going to have to win that battle, we're going to have to solve that argument before we can once again reach across and work together on things."

Sounds like he's about to throw some people to the lions. These views are a threat to our religious freedoms and an assault on the separation between church and state. People who hold these views should be disqualified from holding public office. Unfortunately, far from that, they're fast becoming the standard for the Republican party. We do however like the choice to appear with Sen Shitter. Now somebody buy this ridiculously ignorant tool a ticket to Rome so he can go tell the Vatican about their "godless society."
