Anyone remember hearing this on the MSM?
These tapes were said to have been released to the media outlets following a closed door meeting involving DeLay and Frist.

Includes Transcripts, MP3, and audio stream.

Special Report

Americans United Exposes Congressional Leaders’ Plan To Push Religious Right’s Controversial Political Agenda
The Family Research Council, a Washington-based Religious Right group, held a closed-door “Washington Briefing” March 17-19, 2005. During the event, House Majority Leader Tom DeLay (R-Texas) and Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist (R-Tenn.) addressed attendees and pledged that Republican leaders in Congress would work to implement the Religious Right’s controversial political agenda.

Americans United obtained a recording of DeLay’s and Frist’s comments. Americans United believes this recording underscores the growing power and influence of ultra-conservative fundamentalist organizations on our political system. AU released it to the media and public because the organization does not believe that powerful groups with controversial and narrow fundamentalist agendas that they seek to impose on all Americans should be permitted to plot and scheme in secret.

I already knew that about these people, but such flagrant admittance of intent to create a theocratic government?!?

1. I heard the tapes on Stephanie Millers' radio show
and Ed Schultz too, if I remember correctly.
