UPDATE::MRFF's Testimony Before the House Armed Services Committee Cancelled

As usual, I got a we bit sidetracked (the Cherron Phillips Sovereign case) whilst waiting for the release of Mikey' Weinstein's digital copy of his now cancelled testimony before the House Armed Services Committee. Along with that, I was also wondering and waiting on his reaction (if any) to Pat Robertson's anti-semitic diatribe

First up, Mikey's testimony as provided by MRFF,,,

It is 78 pdf-pages long and thoroughly breaks down the issue of religious coercion in the military. It is "divided" in to three basic sections, with the first section detailing numerous testimonials from individuals helped by MRFF.

Following that, there is discussion concerning the formation of “Restore Military Religious Freedom Coalition" in regards to the NDAA debate including the Fleming Amendment and detail concerning various incidents that required MRFF intervention, "Just War Theory" being a prominent example highlighting the FRC bogus propaganda “A Clear and Present Danger: The Threat to Religious Liberty in the Military." Basically this sections is MRFF’s response to that report which has been cited and referred to by members of Congress on a number of occasions,

As a third enclosure MRFF includes Chris Rodda's contribution to the book Attitudes Aren’t Free: Thinking Deeply About Diversity in the US Armed Forces. The chapter, titled “Against All Enemies, Foreign and Domestic,” covers numerous issues. that still plague our military; includes incidents and examples related to both our military’s religious proselytizing overseas in combat zones and on military bases here in the US.

Even if you decide not to thoroughly read through Mikey's testimony, this PDF is a good resource to have on hand to combat the Reich's bullshit.

As for Mikey's reaction to Windbag Robertson, I defer to Hemant Mehta,

I called up Weinstein to see if he had anything to say in response to Robertson — as if he ever didn’t have something to say — and he was even more blunt than usual:

“Pat Robertson is to human dignity and sanity and integrity and character what dog shit is to a fine French restaurant on the menu.”

Unquote. I’ve had many phone conversations with Weinstein over the years, but never one that quick. He knew exactly what he wanted to say.
