Pat Buchanan can say some of the dumbest things in the world, followed in short order by something very articulate and insightful.  I used to think that which Pat you got depended on whether he was thinking with his brain or his bible.  But this food Pat-bad Pat example doesn't seem to have anything to do with the bible.

I'm not a big fan of proselytizing evangelicals who think God is a corporeal presence hiding just out of sight and ready to swing his Godly sword down on the heads of all who do not believe as the evangelicals believe.  In fact, evangelical Christians of that stripe seem to me more representative of evil than divine good.  And every day they do something else to reinforce that opinion.

Or should perhaps this piece be really titled Okay, idiot, one more time, this is why oil costs so damned much.....

Okay, I live in 21st century America, I read and I watch television.  You bet I'm paranoid, because these are paranoid times.  And paranoia does its job well, frequently supplying the real answer to the old "Why in the hell did they do that?" question.  For example:
