I remember back when him and his creepy wife we're up there at the Republican National Convention saying that if we elect Obama we will usher in a thousand years of darkness. I laughed at how stupid it seemed. Doesn't seem so silly anymore...

Right. I just didn't stick around to hear the second part of that statement where he said "Obama's election will usher in 1000 years of darkness... AND WE ARE TOTALLY HERE TO MAKE THAT HAPPEN!!"

He meant the racists would be very upset and do everything in their power to make sure a black man never sits on their throne again. Prophetic if nothing else.
