Frank Schaeffer: Anti-Obama Religious Rhetoric Is "Trawling For Assassins" (VIDEO)

MSNBC's Rachel Maddow interviewed Huffington Post blogger Frank
Schaeffer on her show Tuesday night about the rising tide of
anti-Obama fervor that is religious in nature.
Maddow cited a Christian Science Monitor article about a new
anti-Obama slogan that has been merchandised on everything from bumper
stickers to t-shirts to teddy bears, which reads, "Pray for Obama:
Psalm 109:8."
The slogan refers to a biblical psalm that reads, "Let his days be
few; and let another take his office." The psalm that immediately
follows it in the bible reads, "Let his children be fatherless, and
his wife a widow."
Frank Schaeffer, author of Patience With God, talked about the ramping
up of religious rhetoric, and the correlating of President Obama with
the unjust kings of ancient Israel, "who should be slaughtered if not
by God then by just men."
"There is a crazy fringe, to whom all these little messages pouring
out of Fox News, now on a bumper sticker, talking about doing away
with Obama, asking God to kill him." Schaeffer said. "Really, this is
trawling for assassins."
