Dengre on Daily Kos serves up Understanding how Conservatives Govern... where the new book by Thomas Frank is thoroughly covered. WOW! The diary is a must read. I've been a huge fan of his last book and The Wrecking Crew: How Conservatives Rule looks like a real gem. Indeed, Black Jack Ambramoff wasn't an aberration but rather the default setting for this bunch. Dengre writes, "Thomas Frank exposes how the modern Republican Party and the Wing-nuts who control it have created a massive industry based on capturing Government and then using the levers of power to enrich themselves, their patrons and destroy their enemies—especially the Government that they have captured." John GunnNearly 50 years in east Alabama, a surname going back to Vikings invading Scotland, and finally too much religious fundamentalism coupled to reactionary radicalism motivates me. I'll share (rarely as of late) my ideas on politics, learning, ... My clan supposedly uses "Peace ... or War!" Maybe those genes compel me to join issue? (Propservralism = PRogressivism + pOPulism + conSERVatism + libeRAL + pragmatISM) Respectfully, John Gunn
