A little-known movement of radical Christians and self-proclaimed prophets wants to infiltrate government, and Rick Perry might be their man.

On September 28, 2009, at 1:40 p.m., God’s messengers visited Rick Perry.

On this day, the Lord’s messengers arrived in the form of two Texas pastors, Tom Schlueter of Arlington and Bob Long of San Marcos, who called on Perry in the governor’s office inside the state Capitol. Schlueter and Long both oversee small congregations, but they are more than just pastors. They consider themselves modern-day apostles and prophets, blessed with the same gifts as Old Testament prophets or New Testament apostles.

The pastors told Perry of God’s grand plan for Texas. A chain of powerful prophecies had proclaimed that Texas was “The Prophet State,” anointed by God to lead the United States into revival and Godly government. And the governor would have a special role.

The day before the meeting, Schlueter had received a prophetic message from Chuck Pierce, an influential prophet from Denton, Texas. God had apparently commanded Schlueter—through Pierce—to “pray by lifting the hand of the one I show you that is in the place of civil rule.”

Gov. Perry, it seemed.

I posted this article several weeks ago, but I'm glad you posted it too, because I think people really should be aware of these people and their (IMHO) scary agenda!

The artwork is enough to make people stop in their tracks.

Yes, saw it on Rachel last night. How can sane people sit there and listen to this absolute craziness from these religious nuts? Oprah is the precurser to the Antichrist? Screwy

Well, it's happened again.

George Dubya made me long for the days of his father.

Sarah Palin made Dubya look smart.

Now Michelle Bachmann and Rick Perry have made me look at Palin as not quite as terrifyingly insane.

I don't want to know what the next level is.

BTW, he looks like Michael Dukakis in that picture.

Quick. Someone put a tank crew helmet on him. We'll be rid of him for good.
