Rick Santorum has long been ridiculed for his anti-homosexual views, but he appears to have someone who can actually extend the extreme of the spectrum to his right: Rev. O’Neil Dozier. Dozier has told his flock that gay “make God want to vomit.” He appears to know a great deal about things that make God vomit. His website describes him as “a prayer warrior who faithfully spends time in his own prayer closet and teaches his flock to pray.” This is one American who might be better off staying in the closet.
For those of us critical of the faith-based politics of both parties and the erosion of the separation of church and state, Dozier is a perfect nightmare.
Dozier previously announced (below) that “The Tea party is a Godly ordained party.” He added “[i]f not for the Republican party, and the Tea Party, the Negro would be a slave. The best thing to happen to the Negro, is the Tea Party”-
I can live with the sermon on God’s view of the tax code and the Tea Party. However, I assured that that is a Cincinnati Reds hat and not a Bears hat. This season has been bad enough. We don’t need to add Dozier.
Dozier has been a guest of George Bush at the White House and says that he was previously under contract with NPR.
When he is not rallying people to join “God’s party,” he is attacking homosexuals whom he declared as responsible for “something so nasty and disgusting that it makes God want to vomit.”
While most people would not want to be in the same room with such a person, Santorum was not satisfied with just an endorsement and instead made him his honorary Florida campaign chairman. He is now campaigning by Santorum by reminding Christians that Romney is a Mormon and is thus unacceptable for faith-based voters. Now, I cannot speak for God, but such an association would challenge the intestinal fortitude of many voters.

Here is a perfect picture to go along with that preechah’s tactic: LINK
I pray that Rickyboy stays in the closet.
A guy with the name Santo Rum should not be so sancto monious.
Dredd,
That pic is priceless…
Dredd,
That made my day.
“On paper, the Rev. O’Neal Dozier is a Republican candidate’s dream, a black minister who pastors a prominent church in Pompano Beach Florida and whose views and past ties to the Bush family have made him a darling in conservative Republican circles.
That is, until he opens his mouth.
Over the years, Rev. Dozier has spouted his share of self-inflicted controversy. In 2006, he derided Muslims as “terrorists” and labled Islam “a cult” during a debate over a mosque’s plans to move into a predominantly black neighborhood. Last October he used the same cult description on Mormonism. He called a Miami judge’s ruling to allow a gay man to adopt two foster children as “one of the worst cases of judicial activism we could ever see,” and he once said a Hilliary Clinton presidency would “inflame Muslims” because she’s a woman. And who can forget: gays “… make God vomit.”

Why not? Everyone else does — and with a lot less credential.
Too bad thats a Cincinnati Reds hat. Sorry I ruined your dig @ da bears
I have helped literally hundreds of young gay men come out of the closet. I have yet to meet an adult straight male who obsesses about the sex lives of other men. Peel it back, and almost always find jealousy. They also never seem to care much what lesbians do. Say the word “transgender,” and it may was well be “witch” as the eyes widen, and the spittle begins to fleck.
Luckily, this mindset is losing traction in America. Being a failed policy, we can expect the GOP to further embrace it.
You may have the nail on the head: “This is one American who might be better off staying in the closet.”
And now we know where the term and usage of Testimony came from……..
An old theory has it that the Romans placed their right hands on their testicles and swore by them before giving testimony in court……

Santorum is in third. Put Santorum’s and Newt’s votes together and it is over 50%. Newt gets 52% of the Tea Party vote.
Thanks for that, Swarthmore mom.
This guy is just perfect for a religious crackpot like Santorum. Is there any doubt anymore that the Tea Party is not of this world?
“Newt is surging in Florida with 41%. Santorum is in third. Put Santorum’s and Newt’s votes together and it is over 50%. Newt gets 52% of the Tea Party vote.” … gotta get the crazies off their couches and out to vote …
“Is there any doubt anymore that the Tea Party is not of this world?”

So…if god did vomit, what comes out?
Did I hear Soprano say: “Senator Sanatorium….”?
Being one of the themes here, I’ll just repeat it takes a strong stomach to fish in those waters, as Santorum does.
Another repeat with: “5 % are batshit.” Just I think it’s more.
Another idiot who just cannot help but embarrass himself, This uncle Tom,religious freak apparently has a direct line to God. NOT. Sir you are gonna rot just like the rest of us., no heaven for you. You and your undercover lover Santorum need to just get a room already
This wacko makes “Me” want to vomit, due to his stand on Gays. No I am not gay, but I also don’t believe in bashing or persecuting them. Also his
assinine comments about Mormons….shows he knows nothing about them..again he makes me want to vomit…what a slime.
