After years of scandal and political defeats, Ralph Reed wants a new start and is creating a new advocacy group called the Faith and Freedom Coalition, reports the Atlanta Journal Constitution.
Now, if you're like me, you may remember Reed as your basic "pro-life," homophobic republican (if not...). And you may find the news of his "return" a bit alarming.
I wouldn't worry about it. Why?
Said Reed: "This is not going to be your daddy's Christian Coalition. It has to be younger, hipper, less strident, more inclusive and it has to harness the 21st century that will enable us to win in the future... It's the political analog to the iPod and the iPhone. It would be cool."
Psst! Ralph! The use of the phrase "This is not going to be your Daddy's..." to say nothing of the words "hipper" and "cool" are sure signs that you know fuck-all about what is hip and cool.
