Business Week magazine, May 23rd edition. There is a huge multipage article about the religeous right, and how it is rapidly expanding, and how bush is beholden to them. In one place, the are converting a past NBA arena into a 16,000 seat church, complete with lasers, smoke machines, rock and roll lighting, and more. It is designed not only to deliver the message in word, but to allow christian rock, rap, and country bands to have another way to preach through music to the younger generation.

These people are coming for your children.

They are also specifically targeting 5-10 weak democratic senate seats, looking to get enough republicans in to get to 60, so that fillibusters won't be an issue - and then use that majority in both houses to ram in a bunch of very conservative surpreme court judges. That is a change that could take 20 - 30 years to undo.

Can you see the path being lit into the distance?
