Next Step in Kansas: Life Begins at Menarche

39. This is it, exactly. Anybody still doubting? Do some reading on ralph reed.

He was out there DECADES ago - during reagan - preaching the gospel of starting by running for school board. Nobody cares. A few votes in the standard low-turnout elections are all you need to get elected. And THEN, you're IN! Then you start building. Alliances, connections, name recognition, media friendlies, and you help your fellow religious nutcases in, too - while your own power base helps you build your own momentum. Next top: city council or alderman or whatever. Then: Congress. Then, Senate or the governor's mansion. And then - hey why not go for the big one? OR make friends with all the potential big ones so you get nominated for some high appointee job - Supreme Court maybe?

It IS going on at this very moment. It's an infiltration. A vile sort of "peaceful" takeover. Systemic, from the ground up. It's been going on since the 70s and 80s. reagan just opened the floodgates and gave them all cover, as well as one of those "friends in high places." The teabaggers are doing the same thing. So are the misogynists and American Taliban in the states - targeting women's reproductive rights. So are the Roe v Wade haters. So are the why-do-blacks-need-voter-protections fiends. And they move from state to state, metastasizing like a cancer. It's underway at this very moment. It's in full flower at this very moment. And they will not be stopped. They ARE patient. And they're ALWAYS thinking, always maneuvering, always sneaking, always moving targets. They're ALWAYS on it.

And OUR side, on the other hand, is really only just starting to wake up.
