This is a must read. Paul Krugman's column in the NY Times today delves in to the impact the far religious right is having on our day-to-day lives. Krugman's column uses the current Schiavo case, invokes DeLay, brings in education and medicine. It's all on target, but this is the quote that struck me:
And the future seems all too likely to bring more intimidation in the name of God and more political intervention that undermines the rule of law.You might expect to see that kind of language describing an acknowledged theocracy like Iran, but Krugman is talking about the United States. Now, that is very scary.
