I  am hearing a new history revision coming from modern radio and religious right prophets I had read about before in earlier journals from the movement.  Earlier versions of the religious right in the U.S. believed that FDR invented a governmental failure in his New Deal.  Some right wing preachers at the time referred to it as the "Jew Deal".  I grew up with the dogma that Roosevelt set into motion government regulations and programs that helped lead us out of the Great Depression.  What I am hearing repeated now is the New deal was a farce. It did not do anything but harm the  nation according to a new host of talk show leaders in my region.
     Black people like Star Parker and J.C. Watts have found a welcome mat in the GOP for advocating that LBJ's Great Society ruined Black people.   Watts claimed it was a great failure.  What this crowd finds troubling about LBJ, (besides civil rights), was the use of government to pass out shares of revenues and demand business  hire some groups.  The fact that both these causes used government to get into business was viewed as an intervention that would lead to no good.  The use of government to react to the "myth" of global warming is seen as a role government will use to harm the country.  Jon Hagee's son believes global warming myths are a plot to eradicate Christians used by Al Gore much like Hitler harmed Jews with government.
     The theory that the nation's government is the great beast warned about in Scripture, means that feeding it only makes it bigger and meaner. This helps lay a foundation for understanding why many religious right speakers have found a receptive audience attacking recent government bailouts. Their solution for economic problems seems to always take the road of less government.  Giving tax breaks means less government and thus a smaller "beast".
     Rushdoony's  anti-government ideas have been passed along to Rick Warren, whether or not Warren realizes it.  When Rick warned that government only ruins people it seeks to help, the same old theory was rewarmed and advocated.  Changing these types opinions on FDR not only means changing their view of history, it also entails changing their interpretation of the Bible.
