Jerry Falwell makes no sense.
Everyone's favorite televangelist slash wacko Jerry Falwell continues to bridge the gap between incomprehensible and reprehensible:
Blah blah blah, crazy Republican calls Democrat the devil -- in a world where Pat Robertson asks his followers to pray for the death of Supreme Court Justices, who cares about a simple Lucifer analogy? Well, its Falwell's response that takes things a step up.
I don't think Jerry Falwell understands words. Seriously, his position is that comparing Hillary Clinton to a demon does not constitute demonizing her. And saying an insult was "tongue in cheek" doesn't excuse anything, it just means you've expressed an opinion disguised as humor in light of its unpopularity. For instance, I can say "Jerry Falwell is a facist motherfucker." The comment might be "tongue in cheek," but it doesn't make my actual argument any less real. The difference between the Reverend and I is that I'm quoting CNN, and he pretends to speak for the Christians of America.
He's also a ginormous tool.

"I certainly hope that Hillary is the candidate," Falwell said at a breakfast session Friday in Washington. "I hope she's the candidate, because nothing will energize my (constituency) like Hillary Clinton," he said. "If Lucifer ran, he wouldn't."

Falwell told the AP that he did not intend to demonize the former first lady. "That was totally tongue-in-cheek and everyone in the building knew that and everyone laughed," Falwell said.
