The Wit and Wisdom of Charlie Daniels, Part I

Since Charlie Daniels is going to be entertaining Republicans at an exclusive party at the Republican National Convention here in the honky-tonkin', Bible-totin', pistol-shootin' capital of the world, New York, I thought it would be fun to take a look at some of the common-sense things Mr. Daniels has to say.

"Pat [Robertson] stays on top of current events and issues and his well thought out comments are refreshing for a Christian living in such a secular world." -- Charlie Daniels "Soapbox" column, entitled "Pat Robertson," July 30, 2004.

Jerry Falwell: What we saw on Tuesday, as terrible as it is, could be minuscule if, in fact, God continues to lift the curtain and allow the enemies of America to give us probably what we deserve.

Pat Robertson: Jerry, that's my feeling.

...

Falwell: The abortionists have got to bear some burden for this because God will not be mocked. And when we destroy 40 million little innocent babies, we make God mad. I really believe that the pagans, and the abortionists, and the feminists, and the gays and the lesbians who are actively trying to make that an alternative lifestyle, the ACLU, People for the American Way, all of them who have tried to secularize America, I point the finger in their face and say, 'You helped this happen.'

Robertson: I totally concur...
