1. ".... it will sweep the elegant, erudite,
pretentious and toxic detritus of nonoriginalism out to sea ..."

Alas, the wrong 'toxic detritus' will be swept out!

Maybe I should go lie down.

2. It's hardly a secret that they've been influencing government for years.
They had a huge negative impact on the Clinton presidency, for example. I see the Federalist Society as part nursery/part nanny of the neoconservative movement. Their hand rocks the cradle and rules the world.

And, even if people finally wise up about the B*shistas, the Federalist Society will continue working quietly in the background to influence university curricula, enlist up and coming fascists to their cause, and, eventually, install another neocon administration.

4. A neo-conspiracy?
NO. Just a bunch of like minded control freaks who get together and discuss how they can, through technocratic-bureaucratic machinations, gain control of every aspect of our lives.

Oh wait maybe the answer is YES.

Conspire- to breathe together.

There is much bad breath with the Federalist Fascists.

They are all cowards hiding in their paperwork and position papers.

Resist

5. I was so excited to see this nasty business reach
the light of day. I hope the thread grows so that it will be more main streamed and more sheeple will wake up. It's true the red necked fundies are loud and ugly, but more and more are muttering in the corners. We just need to keep those pesky facts coming.

Be sure and rate this up!
