From Daily Kos:

For those that thought that there has not been a full scale war lanched against liberals; for those who didn't take the radical right's promise to "eradicate liberals" seriously, I present to you, Exhibit A: East Waynesville Baptist Church has just kicked out all its Democratic members. Yes. You read that right. If you didn't vote for Bush, you had to "repent your sin". And finally, they figured why deal with the liberal sinners at all..

Which is why, ladies and germs, our Founding Fathers believed in the separation of Church and State.

It's an all-out religious war. Believe as they do, that Bush is the annointed one, the Hand of God on earth, or be damned.

Edited to add:
The story is just hitting the TV news. There's a video snippet, but the server is swamped. Here's a synopsis from dailykos.com:


Synposis: The minister said if you supported John Kerry or the Democratic Party, you are against the Church. 9 members said the minister led the charge to excommunicate them because of issues of abortion and homosexuality.

He said they had to repent and agree to vote Republican. 40 other members resigned in protest.

If This Goes On....

You'll be glad you voted for keeping personal firearms...

Seriously, there is hope - note that 40 members resigned from the church in protest.

Vote Libertarian - one of the few parties that explicitly says it doesn't consider laws and morals to be the same thing.
