Franky Schaeffer has now officially the poster boy for angry, bitter, grudge-holding sons. His book railed against the sins of his father and the hopeless naivete’ of his mother (just in case there was anyone left who might possibly respect them) and now he makes the rounds on TV talk shows denouncing all his father’s friends and followers, claiming that he was the mastermind behind the Christian Right and the Pro-life movement, and . . . whatever modern Christians might think is pretty good and mistakenly believe others actually had a hand in. Doug Wilson calls this “father hunger” and it is certainly that and more besides. If nothing else, it demonstrates what bitterness and anger can do to you. and it ain’t pretty.

Franky’s nuts. Imagine comparing our “democratically elected” President to Hitler: Didn’t Hitler, after all, assume power legally (and semi-democratically) in Germany?
One thing this shows is that the left-wing talking heads don’t have much in the way of ammo. All they can do is malign their opponents and spin the facts, bring on Franky who has the “moral” authority to denounce white Christian males (cuz, ya know, he wuz one), and wring their hands… it’s actually pathetic.
Small group of angry WHITE people? what, we can no longer have a voice? What a moron.
He is a smaller group of angry white people than are they!
