There are crazies everywhere.

Though the email wasn't sent by Boss O'Brien, it sounds like something he might do.  There are crazies like O'Brien everywhere.  How sad for America.

An email recently sent by Kansas House Speaker Mike O'Neal (R-Hutchinson) to his Republican colleagues appears to endorse a controversial prayer that some say calls for the untimely death of President Obama.

"Pray for Obama. Psalm 109:8." That's the slogan an email from O'Neal refers to, a phrase that's become popular in some circles on bumper stickers and other merchandise. The bible passage itself reads, "Let his days be few; and let another take his office." The real controversy arises in the next verse of Psalm 109, however, which continues, "May his children be fatherless and his wife a widow."

Let us review a few apt lines from The Bard (4.00 / 2)
spoken by Antonio in the Merchant of Venice:

The devil can cite Scripture for his purpose.
An evil soul producing holy witness
Is like a villain with a smiling cheek,
A goodly apple rotten at the heart:
O, what a goodly outside falsehood hath!

It seems to me that in recent times, the origins of some so-called "Christian" rhetoric have become quite clear.

Hope for a return to sanity.
