Did anyone else hear the interview with Grover Norquist on "Fresh Air"?
He's a rather creepy fellow-- all spin and no substance. I haven't heard that many logical fallacies since I accidentally listened to Rush Limbaugh years ago. His whole shtick is the appeal to fear: we, the people, versus them, the government that is trying to exterminate us. He also threw in a few vague statistics and sweeping generalizations for good measure. After all I've read about him, I was expecting someone a lot more intellectual.

It's amazing how far you can get if you're well-financed.

He's downright scary. He's got plans.

2. he's got plans alright
"My goal is to cut government in half in twenty-five years ... to get it down to the size where we can drown it in the bathtub."
From The Nation - Grover Norquist, Field Marshall of the Bush Plan

3. Grover Norqueer question
Why do you not have female associates?
Why have you for years lived in a house with just men?

4. "Grover Norquist" is incompatible with the concept of "Fresh Air"
They should have changed the title to "Stale Air" or "Hot Air".

5. I've boycotted Terri Gross
ever since her pathetic pandering to the pro-war side. She can fondle a buffalo's balls and fall off a cliff for all I care.
