The Dominionists/The Family?

You're right, it is about Power and Control

Meet the Dominionists -- biblical literalists who believe God has called them to take over the U.S. government. As the far-right wing of the evangelical movement, Dominionists are pressing an agenda that makes Newt Gingrich's Contract With America look like the Communist Manifesto. They want to rewrite schoolbooks to reflect a Christian version of American history, pack the nation's courts with judges who follow Old Testament law, post the Ten Commandments in every courthouse and make it a felony for gay men to have sex and women to have abortions. Their ultimate goal is to plant the seeds of a "faith-based" government that will endure far longer than Bush's presidency -- all the way until Jesus comes back.

Now, we see the Dominionists have been successful in recruiting Democrats into "The Family." The leader of this group has been quoted as saying their aim is "Jesus plus nothing". Men who understand how power should be wielded and people need to be directed to the cause.

*All of these members need to be voted out of office. They are far more dangerous to our government and the Democratic Party than the Blue Dogs. Don't think they don't share Democratic closed meetings information with their Republican C-Street pals.

Rachel Maddow explained what she thought "The Family" meant: promoting American power worldwide, unfettered capitalism, no unions, no programs to help poor people - All with this idea that godly powerful rich men should get as many riches and resources personally and they should just privately help everyone else.
