The Not-Really-Secret Christian Cabal Of D.C.

by Choire posted @12:02 PM

OMG THEY HAVE A FLAGToday's Washington Post blows the lid off "the very nexus of American scandal" in Washington! Yes, it's the rowhouse on C Street, home of the "obsessively secretive" organization usually called the Fellowship Foundation. Yea, so secretive it is, verily, that the organization has had a Wikipedia entry since June, 2004, noting the founding of the D.C. headquarters in 1942. Also last year's The Family: The Secret Fundamentalism at the Heart of American Power. Also remember when Hillary Clinton was going to all those prayer breakfasts? Yes. Nevertheless! It has been tumultuous recently. Apparently "the house pulsed with backstage intrigue, in the days and months before the Sanford and Ensign scandals," as various members of Congress tried to get other members of Congress to stop sleeping with people who aren't their wives. Horses, barn doors, prevention, pound of cure, etc.

    The Lord should've told them to subscribe to the Playboy Channel.

    The hazing during Hell Week is really ironic.
