Oh, I know, and I agree. I've just been reading a lot of political blogs this week and their comments, and it's kind of frustrating to see people calling her a hypocrite because of Bristol's pregnancy which makes me uneasy.
It's actually driving me crazy that people call her a fundamentalist. She's really not a fundie. Assembly of God, like you say, is Pentacostal and even we fundies thought they were nutty, to be honest. But people use the term fundamentalist wrongly, I've found. They lump evangelicals and fundamentalists together too, and, um, no. Evangelical =/= fundamentalist at ALL. Entirely different theological viewpoints in some major ways. When I was at BJ, I wasn't allowed to attend evangelical churches because they were too religiously liberal. And they wouldn't have touched the Pentacostals with a ten-foot pole because of the whole speaking-in-tongues, touched-by-the-Spirit charismatic element of those churches. Very looked askance upon by fundies.
And don't get me started on the term Dominionist...sigh.
