These folks are the real danger because they fear dialogue and different viewpoints. Strictly anti-constitutional and in direct opposition to everything that is "meant" to be American. I'm up "to here" with the neo-con, fascist machine cranking out their bullshit rather than facing up to an honest disagreement and working things through. All they want to do is sell their lockstep, sig-heil, bloodletting machine but rest assured they will find poor and middle class kids to do the heavy lifiting and the dying. Forget them, the plague will pass. If only guys like Pete Stark would quit apologizing and kick some ass. These blowhard "stink tank" people want you to apologize and kiss up because they really see themselves as correct, holy, and perfectly ok with telling everybody else what to do and what to think.

As others have noted (based solely on reading the first dozen or so comments), "universities and colleges" seems a bit overstretching things. (Perhaps "Family Security Matters" feels that Liberty University and Hillsdale College aren't far-right enough for them, but these are hardly kindred spirits with schools like Berkeley or Columbia.) However, the League of the South? The group which advocates the re-establishment of the Old Confederacy and promotes most of the standard right-wing rhetoric. And the Family Research Council? Are they talking about James Dobson's group? I suppose their dislike of the League could be due to that organization's secessionist leanings, but the Family Research Council? What in the world did Dobson do to piss off FSM? Well, all I can say is I hope Dobson and the FRC does more of it and hope this leads to some of the other Religious Right groups to denounce FSM for their "Christian bashing".

Right. You can see it starting with a number of the trolls on these threads. Sometimes I wonder if Think Tanks try to "float" ideas on sites like these and see how they fly. At the moment, conservatives have a number of competing memes. They want us to celebrate the fact that violence is marginally down in Iraq, but they don't think this should lead to a discussion of timetables for bringing troops home. They even at times now admit that the war is a big mistake, but still somehow hold the opinion that pulling out of a "big mistake" is somehow less than American. Very, very strange.
