Rader/BTK, the alleged mass-murderer is a Republican...

[BlueFlu]

I just called the Sedgwick County, Kansas Election Commissioner's office, and they confirmed that Dennis Rader was a registered Republican.

Why am I not surprised???

[calico1]

1. Ted Bundy was a Republican too. n/t

[Sanity Claws]

2. Same here

[malaise]

3. Heard that on Larry King

registered to boot. Ah well.

[LisaM]

4. Good, then we should start calling him Registered Republican Dennis Rader

the way Michael Skakel is always called "Kennedy Cousin Michaal Skakel."

Gee, how would we have ever known that without this post!

Maybe from THIS post?

9. Sorry, I had missed the earlier thread...

but am glad that I confirmed that he was a Republcian, as many DUs were questioning the veracity of the statement.

[Zuni]

6. I am more surprised that they gave out that information

But I am not surprised by that evil man's party affiliation---from what I have heard, he was GOP personified.

7. Election Commissioner's office gives out personal information?

I thought that was illegal.

If it's not, it should be.

[BlueFlu]

12. Nope, not illegal... I first asked what his affiliation was...

and she said she could only confirm or deny questions about his registration. I asked if he was a registered Republican, and she said "Yes."

I said "Thank you!"

[gratuitous]

13. Nope, party affiliation is a matter of public record

Your home address and all that other stuff, however, is not given out by the elections offices.

[Goldmund]

8. Not again...

[Wonk]

10. and a "devout Christian" too.

15. now THAT is the more relevant issue here

that so many, many people go to church and claim to be Christians, and yet that is ALL they do.
They are fake Christians. Nothing to back it up.

17. dup post

[Poppyseedman]

18. Not sure what your point is, but..........................................

So by your same logic:
All by-the-book code enforcement officer are grouped in with him.
All former Cub Scout leaders are grouped in with him.
All groups he associated with are now suspect?

It is part of his profile to be a chameleon, to fit in.

Obviously, by murdering 10 women excludes him from being a "devout Christian"

But you already know that, don't you?

11. I wish that there was some video of this bozo holding forth on morality...

[gizmonic]

14. But don't forget...

that John Wayne Gacy :+ was known for his Democratic connections. (remember the famous photo w/Gacy and Rosalyn Carter in the 70's?)

Hope this wasn't a dupe post...

16. He is a BORN AGAIN CHRISTIAN REPUBLICAN.

He was active in his church for over 30 years, and he is considered a leader.

Why am I not suprised?
