SATAN NEEDS AN AGENT. The devil is certainly getting a lot of press these days. Not to be outdone by Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez, who last week called President George W. Bush the devil, the Rev. Jerry Falwell one-upped him by naming Hillary Clinton as something even worse than the devil. At the "Values Voter Summit" convened this past weekend by the Family Research Council, Rev. Falwell addressed a gathering of pastors. From the Los Angeles Times:
"I certainly hope that Hillary is the candidate," Falwell said, according to the recording. "She has $300 million so far. But I hope she's the candidate. Because nothing will energize my [constituency] like Hillary Clinton."Cheers and laughter filled the room as Falwell continued: "If Lucifer ran, he wouldn't."Apparently, no one did a sniff test for sulfur around the podium at the Omni Shoreham from which Falwell delivered his speech.
