Thanks for that, 'Soup.
I remember the days when one would shake one's head, proclaim a nut as a nut, and other sane people would nod in acknowledgement and agreement.
This particular nut, however, is dangerous because he has the power to rally other nuts, some with power also, to his misbegotten and unGodly causes.
In the mid-80s, when I was in my mid-30s, we had Reagan, Thatcher, Pope John Paul and Helmut Kohl helping to keep the world sane. Now we have the Mulatto Mafia (H/T the zman) in the WH, Cameron, Merkel and the above-mentioned nut advocating the UNsane to the UNsane all over the world, whose numbers appear to be increasing and increasingly irrational.
I would despair if I didn't have Faith. Sometimes I do despair anyway.
