Thanks to Brian Rothenberg of www.progressohio.org,we learn:
"The Cincinnati Post has reported that Secretary of State Ken Blackwell's campaign is conducting a bus tour through Southern Ohio October 5th-7th with a man named Larry Pratt.
According to the Southern Poverty Law Center, Mr. Pratt has a well-known history of dealings with racist and anti-Semitic organizations. Pratt's associations with neo-fascist groups is so repugnant that even right-winger Pat Buchanan asked Pratt to resign from a leadership post in his campaign after Pratt's associations became known.'
Says Joe at www.plunderbund.com, "Larry Pratt, a gun rights absolutist whose Gun Owners of America (GOA) has been "described as "eight lanes to the right" of the National Rifle Association, may well be the person who brought the concept of citizen militias to the radical right.
The same year, it emerged that Pratt was a contributing editor to a periodical of the anti-Semitic United Sovereigns of America, and that his GOA had donated money to a white supremacist attorney's group.
Pratt is today close to the extremist Constitution Party and its radical theology."
Pratt will be the keynote speaker at the far right of right Restoring Our Heritage's Fall Banquet this coming Monday, October 9, 2006. I don't know about you, but my mother always said you're known by the company you keep.
