Great blog.
This Kevin Philips, the American Theocracy guy, is very smart. And, his analysis is seriously depressing me. Maybe it's his delivery, or the fact that he's and old school republican. But I'll be damned if the stuff this guy is saying doesn't sound dead on. Here's a speech and Q&A.

Is this what republicans we're like before Reagan? Maybe I was a pre-Reagan republican in a former life. He talks about oil hegemony, reframing the Iraq invasion in a way I didn't think about.
We all know it was about oil, but he really says it right.
He also goes into republican chances in november. Oh, and of course he goes into the crazy theocracy stuff that makes me wanna buy a house in the hills and not come out 'til 2020.
