Y’all probably remember that Rick Santorum gave a wildeyed crazybutt speech that went like this:

They are taking faith and crushing it. Why? Why? When you marginalize faith in America, when you remove the pillar of God-given rights, then what’s left is the French Revolution. What’s left is the government that gives you rights. What’s left are no unalienable rights, what’s left is a government that will tell you who you are, what you’ll do and when you’ll do it. What’s left in France became the guillotine. Ladies and gentlemen, we’re a long way from that. But if we do and follow the path of President Obama and his overt hostility to faith in America, then we are headed down that road.

It was one of those wha……? moments.  French Revolution?  Huh?  What the dickens is that all about?

As a woman of faith and having been raised in the Baptist church (twice on Sunday and once in the middle of the week), I usually catch the right’s code words.  And having been born with a name like DuQuesnay, I was born genetically predisposed and encoded to knowing about the French Revolution.

But, this one went right over my head.

Thankfully, someone else caught it.

Take a lookie right here at Revelation 20:4 (KJV) talking about the end times.

And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years.

Y’all, Rick Santorum just called Barack Obama the beast, the anti-Christ, the devil on earth, the Democrat.

Well, I have a little scripture for Rick’s supporters. Genesis 22:5 (KJV)

Abide ye here with the ass; and I and the lad will go yonder and worship.

Don’t roll your eyes at me.  That was no sillier than the guillotine thing.

By the way, the guillotine thing has become part of Rick’s repertoire.  He did it again on Friday.  Onward Christian Soldiers.

Thanks to Scott for the heads-up.
