Former DeLay Aide: ‘Wacko’ Christians Will Believe Anything

Michael Scanlon: How to “bring out the wackos” Here’s something that should at least temporarily replace “poor, uneducated, and easy to command” as the most outrageous characterization of conservative Christians.

Salon.com reports from the U.S. Senate Indian Affairs Committee hearings on the practices of lobbyists Jack Abramoff, Ralph Reed, and Michael Scanlon.

Weblog doesn’t have time to go into all the details of the investigation here. If you need a background briefing, Wikipedia has a pretty good one. What Weblog is more interested in is how sure Scanlon (and presumably the others, including former Christian Coalition president Reed) were that they could convince conservative Christians that they were opposing gambling by protecting gambling interests.

Indian tribes wanted their casinos protected from competition, such as state lotteries and casinos on other tribes’ land. So the lobbyists decided to mobilize Christians against the proposals to expand local gambling.

Here’s Salon’s Michael Scherer:

Consider one memo highlighted in a Capitol Hill hearing Wednesday that Scanlon, a former aide to Rep. Tom DeLay, R-Texas, sent the Coushatta Tribe of Louisiana to describe his strategy for protecting the tribe’s gambling business. In plain terms, Scanlon confessed the source code of recent Republican electoral victories: Target religious conservatives, distract everyone else, and then railroad through complex initiatives. …

The brilliance of this strategy was twofold: Not only would most voters not know about an initiative to protect Coushatta gambling revenues, but religious “wackos” could be tricked into supporting gambling at the Coushatta casino even as they thought they were opposing it.

The use of the term “wackos” was Scanlon’s, not Salon’s. Here’s what he wrote (it’s on p. 119 of this massive file):

We plan to use three forms of communications to mobilize and win these battles. … Our mission is to get specifically selected groups of individuals to the polls to speak out AGAINST something. To that end, your money is best spent finding them and communicating with them on using the modes that they are most likely to respond to. Simply put, we want to bring out the wackos to vote against something and make sure the rest of the public lets the whole thing slip past them. The wackos get their information form [sic] the Christian right, Christian radio, mail, the internet, and telephone trees. [bold added]

That’s not the only interesting document in that huge file released by the Indian Affairs Committee. The e-mails from Reed to Pat Robertson and Jerry Falwell are interesting, too.

What’s particularly interesting about all this is that Christian voters probably could have been mobilized against expanding gambling in the South without all the deception that these records detail. There’s a long tradition of opposing expansion of problematic businesses while not getting too upset over existing businesses. They might have even been happy to make common cause with the Coushatta Tribe against the expansion. Certainly they would have mobilized to oppose the expansion of gambling without the use of all the gambling money that went into the Abramoff efforts.

But that’s the whole point: For Abramoff, Scanlon, Reed, and the others involved, the intent apparently wasn’t to fight off expanded gambling. It was to get as much money as they could from these tribes.

If you feel bad being called a wacko, remember: Abramoff called the Indians “monkeys,” “troglodytes,” and “idiots.”

Baylor’s new president Those of you who have watched the Battle for Baylor will be interested to learn that the university has a new president. It’s John Lilley, who previously led the University of Nevada at Reno and Pennsylvania State University-Erie. He’s a Baylor grad, but perhaps not a Baptist. In Erie, he was a ruling elder of the First Presbyterian Church of the Covenant, a PCUSA church. But the Baylor press release says “While a student at Baylor and USC, Dr. Lilley, a licensed Baptist minister, served as minister of music at two Baptist churches.” He told today’s press conference that he’ll be attending First Baptist.

Weblog doesn’t know much about him, but it’s worth noting that Hunter Baker, who has written on Baylor fights for Christianity Today, says, “He will be in favor of the faith-learning integration project already underway and will continue on the path to making Baylor a true research university.”

Also, it’s worth noting that the BaylorFans message board, largely populated by the kinds of people who thought that former Baylor president Robert Sloan was a “fundamentalist” bent on destroying the university, is generally upset with the appointment.

So it sounds like good news. But we’ll withhold judgment until we can actually do some reporting on this.

Who brought up the Klan? The Austin (Tex.) American-Statesman has a story today on 30 pastors rallying to support the state’s marriage amendment. It’s got the five W’s, but given the point of the story, the most important question is never answered.

The title: “Pastors gather in Austin to back marriage amendment.”

The deck: “Group careful to distance itself from KKK, which also supports Prop 2.”

Of the 298-word story, 126 words are devoted to the Klan:

While supporting the amendment on Tuesday’s ballot, several Austin-area pastors said they wanted to distance their message from that of the Ku Klux Klan, which is planning a rally on Saturday to support the amendment.

“We have nothing in common with the Ku Klux Klan,” said Michael Lewis, the president of the Austin Area Pastors Council. “As Christians, we have to distance ourselves, particularly on racial issues. We’re separate from them.”

“I am particularly concerned about the Ku Klux Klan and other rogue groups that are supporting the passage of Proposition 2,” said Steve Washburn, the senior pastor at First Baptist Church in Pflugerville. “But their language is laced with hate, and we want all who are listening to know we are here out of love.”

So here’s the question: Who brought up the Klan? Did American-Statesman reporter Lilly Rockwell ask Lewis and Washburn what they thought about the Klan’s support of the amendment? Or did they just start talking about the Klan?

If Rockwell brought it up, that’s an unconscionable smear and a severe violation of journalistic ethics.

If Lewis and Washburn brought it up, they’re foolish, and they’re wrong to suggest that the Klan has such significant political power that it’s an important part of the story.

City officials are encouraging people to ignore the Klan’s rally. Good strategy. So who’s the one who thinks the most important thing about a pastors’ rally is that they aren’t Klan members?
