Don’t you think our great nation deserves a Presidential candidate this year who will REALLY stand up to Obama and the Democrats?
A candidate who, side-by-side with the stalwart Mission Viejo birther Orly Taitz, has filed dozens of lawsuits challenging the impostor Barack Hussein Obama‘s citizenship and legitimacy?
One who famously and publicly utters “imprecatory prayers” for the DEATH of this traitor – and not just for Obama’s death, but for the deaths of ALL Democrats who voted for the monstrous, Satanic obscenity known as OBAMACARE?
A candidate who has long and staunchly fought The Gay no matter how uncool that made him, leading a boycott of Disney for their pro-gay policies, while boldly proclaiming homosexuality “abnormal, biologically unhealthy, as well as contrary to Bible teaching?” And who responded to the complaints of a secular group over his weighing in on politics from his First Southern Baptist Church of Buena Park by praying for THEIR deaths as well?
Well, are you in luck! I’ve just learned that my old acquaintance Wiley Drake, Baptist minister and Buena Park homeless advocate who’s done all of the above and more, has tossed his hat into the ring, to be your write-in candidate to take on the hated Muslim usurper!
So I gave Wiley a jingle to see exactly how he plans to make this Presidential run work, and what his purposes are.
First off, WTF?
Wiley decided six months ago that he had to run, because he could clearly see that no other candidates – certainly none of the four current Republican candidates – were really intent on making America, once again, “One Nation Under GOD.”
Wait a sec, what about Santorum? How much more theocratic can you get than that? Well, for Wiley, both Rick Santorum and Newt Gingrich are guilty of the rankest hypocrisy – while claiming to be for “little government,” they are stubborn funders of the most outrageous big government program of all: Child Protective Services! (That’s actually how I know Wiley – last year we were both trying to help a mom get her kids back from CPS. Long story…)
Mitt Romney of course is the worst of the bunch – not only a LIBERAL, but also a MORMON! *cough* *puke* And Ron Paul cannot possibly be a Man of God, as he is a libertarian – and they believe, definitionally, in “if it feels good, do it!” He would certainly not accept any of these four candidates offer to run as their running mate, as he did with Allan Keyes for the American Independent Party in 2008. (He hasn’t yet decided who will be HIS running mate.)
Then I asked what we’d all like to know: Whom would a President Wiley Drake put on the Supreme Court? Again, he hasn’t come up with any particular names, but he does think that all Judges, including the Supremes, should no longer have lifetime appointments, but should be elected and regularly face re-election. When I told him that would require a Constitutional amendment, he replied, “Well, not really, I don’t think.”
Foreign policy. Wiley, like most Americans, fails to see or remember why the hell we’re still in Afghanistan, and wants us out quickly. As far as helping out with the Arab Spring rebellions, as Obama did in Libya and McCain is itching to do in Syria, he demurs: we should pretty much stand back and let things take their course, and anyway that should be up to Congress, not the President. On the other hand, what about the specter of Iran’s fabled and scary NUCLEAR BOMB? “We just shouldn’t let them get it!” Um, okay, how do we do that? “Well, we should just go over there and take it from them!” Um, okay, that sounds like another war, doesn’t it? “Well, no, not if we do it smart.”
As far as immigration policy, he agrees with most Americans BUT NOT MOST REPUBLICANS that we need to make the pathway to citizenship “much simpler and faster.” (I’m not surprised to see him be relatively humane and realistic about this, given his constant work with the homeless and the underclass.)
Finally, how would President Wiley Drake fix the economy and bring back American jobs? Why, that’s just the simplest thing in the world – the government just needs to stop borrowing, and stop spending money we don’t have!
So, over all, what do you think? Laugh away, but how far, after all, are Wiley’s positions from the mainstream of today’s GOP? What once seemed out-of-the-mainstream extreme is starting to be touched, caressed, even fondled by the Republican Party establishment:
- While the four GOP frontrunners are not out-and-out birthers, prominent birthers like Donald Trump and Joe Arpaio do get their rings kissed by them in the quest for their endorsements;
- Wiley’s overly harsh on Rick Santorum – a politician with a career behind him necessarily has some compromised votes, but the frothy ex-Senator, who is surging against Romney and may well be the nominee, is fully as theocratic as Wiley;
- His bone-headed proclamations on Iran, gays, sexual autonomy and the economy are no more vague, nonsensical or wrong than those of Romney, Gingrich or Santorum;
- He’s actually TO THE LEFT of the GOP field on immigration and Afghanistan.
- Imprecatory death prayers are the only thing remaining of Wiley’s platform that the GOP hasn’t yet embraced.
So, what once seemed freaky and scary really doesn’t any more, as the Republican Party has madly chased their inner freaks off that cliff to the right. If what Wiley said here makes good sense to you, as it well may if you’re a Republican, by all means write him in for President this year, and give a local boy and homeless activist a leg up! (Website still in progress. Endorsements still forthcoming.)
As a candidate in the region (although only a couple of slivers of Buena Park), how do I get Rev. Drake to pray for my death? It seems like a pretty good insurance policy to keep alive.
Hey, if I go to his church and ask him if I can pray for my death with him, is he guilty of assisted suicide?
Only if your prayers are answered.
I bet if you asked Ron Garcia, Brea’s Mayor he could give you some tip’s.
I am pretty sure that in a (seemingly) desperate moment ina campaign a few years ago he was not only endorsed, but he touted Drakes support.
Confirming that some people will do and say ANYTHING to gain/retain power. It’s a shame that what was once service has become self serving.
If you make a run for the money Diamond, I have a pretty cool trick up my sleeve on your behalf.
I’ll bet Wile E. Coyote (Supergenious) would love to endorse him for president.
How can anyone not like Wiley Drake? He is such a “mensch” as they say. He has fought Redevelopment Agency abuses, fought for religious freedom and is just plain a very nice guy. Now that doesn’t mean that he is right on everything. We have had many differing opinions in the years past on a variety of minor issues. Anyway, it is nice to see WD out there…running amongst them. Keep up the energy Wiley and have some fun along the way. Luckily for all of us…..you are no Herman Cain!
Does the “variety of minor issues” include praying for the death of “Obama … and the deaths of ALL Democrats who voted for the monstrous, Satanic obscenity known as OBAMACARE”? To some of us, that issue is not exactly minor.
We are sure that Wiley does not consider race, creed, religion or national heritage when he stands up for what he believes.
Although he may consider………who is a registered Republican.
Race maybe, but don’t say “creed” or “religion” with a straight face. Wiley would never support someone he didn’t personally consider to be HIS kind of Christian, and is especially contemptuous of Romney’s Mormonism.
What? Did you say Scientology or Moronism? L. Ron Hubbard was a great man that served his country in WWII in the US Navy. His pal was a used car salesman from Encino and told Ron that they should go into business together because L. Ron had a fabulous BS quotient. L. Ron immediately responded that the only way to make money was to go into Religion. The rest is history. Meanwhile Brigham Young was the 1st Governor of Utah and put in time reminding folks that seagulls and Joseph Smith were definitely part of God’s plan for a greater world. The rest is history……and that is why Mormons have wives to select from, where the rest of us don;t!
Wiley knows all this stuff and probably teaches it to the kids in Sunday School. If not,
he knows that Muslims come from Muslin……and Indians come from Buffalo. Truly, Wiley is not selective about who he might insult. God love him!
“I urge, then, first of all, that petitions, prayers, intercession and thanksgiving be made for all people—for kings and all those in authority, that we may live peaceful and quiet lives in all godliness and holiness”
1 Timothy 2:1-2
Anyone Christian who prays for the death of another person is a heretic.
Oh, and then there’s that whole thing about committing murder in your heart.
The guy needs help.
anon – Ever heard of the Catholic Church? We aren’t even going there. There would be a line from here to the moon…..if you start to do your research on Religions calling for the deaths of others. Knights of the Templar? Nevermind!
“God is on our side!”…..remember that one? Jimmy Carter also never convinced us that he committed LUST ….ONLY in his heart. Carter probably still has every Playboy Magazine ever printed during his Presidency. Rosalyn probably catelogued them all.
No, Wiley is OK……he does good for others…and that can’t be all bad … ya know?
So you’re willing to brush aside Drake’s repellant brand of religion by pointing out the repellant brand of others? Is that what you’re saying? Really?
That’s the way adolescents think.
Pretty common way of thinking around these precincts, unfortunately…
*One last thought: Ya think Wiley will accept the VP spot with Ron Paul? Or do you think Wiley is just “too Tea Party” even for Ron Paul?
I wish you two would read the articles you comment on. I asked what he thought about Ron Paul, and I asked if he would be anyone’s running mate (like he was with Allan Keyes four years ago.) And he answered. Now read the article.
*Vague……whether Ron Paul is a Libertarian. Vague. We read that. Still….Ross the Boss is not running. Nor is Ralph Nader. That leaves Lindon Laroush who of course Wiley must love….cause he is the only one left. Still, sticking to those Old Time Republican Roots….OTRR’s…..you gotta think……Wiley and Ron Paul? Wiley and Jesse James…would never work. He hates tattoos…we are sure!
