Fox and Religious Right Freaks Out Over The Movie 'Noah'

Don't these folk have anything better to do? Seannie Hannity bemoans the lack of Gladiator-esque hoopla from Russell Crowe. Russell responds that, "people who haven't even seen it ... are infected with stupidity" to a Faux interviewer.

Eric Erickson issues a fatwa, "Anyone who sees this movie should be burned at the stake!"

I looked. http://www.redstate.com/2014/03/27/d...onofskys-noah/

Well, he says "any Christian leader who endorses the movie should be burned at the stake." And I don't really know this Erickson dude. Is it possible he's not exactly literally serious here?

<sarcasm> At least he will be in good company, extremist Muslim leaders are up in arms over this movie.

Yeah, the comment was, IMHO, very tongue in cheek.

I agree - not necessarily with the blogger, but with the thought that the post was snarky.

Eric Ericson is a "bomb-thrower". Like Beck, he tosses out shit for the reaction. (In fact, I think he replaced Beck on HLN... until they canned him too.

A fight for the right wing pie.

One business group decides to get a piece of Hannity's action, sets up John Savage in the same time slot. Savage comes out blazing and accuses Hannity
of being a Republican hack who just repeats Fox talking points.

So what Savage does...he becomes more right wing outrageous.
