So the famous and influential revenend James Dobson is calling the Supreme Court the moral equivalent of the KKK.

Why do you suppose Dobson wants to whip up hatred for judges and for our Constitutional system of checks and balances?

Extremist talk like this has always gone in in the USA to some extent, but the scary thing is how OPEN it is now, and how POWERFUL are the voices of those who espouse extremism.

The more educated we are, the less likely we are to succumb to extremism and follow demagogues. That’s why authoritarian and totalitarian governments demonize the educated - they can’t win our hearts and minds with bullshit propaganda, because we have been trained to think critically.

But extremists in the media are preaching mostly to people of typical modest education, people more likely to succumb to the influence of the extremist propaganda.

Ignoramous US Senators, Republican political activists, famous talk show hosts, religious leaders — all these people spouting anti-constitutional rhetoric to inflame the masses into rejecting our system of checks and balances.

What do they really want?

Is it One Party Rule? A totalitarian state?

On his April 11 radio broadcast, Focus on the Family founder James Dobson continued his tirade against what he has termed ‘judicial tyranny.’ With Mark Levin, author of Men In Black: How the Supreme Court Is Destroying America (foreword by Rush Limbaugh), as his guest, Dobson likened Supreme Court justices to the Ku Klux Klan:

DOBSON: I heard a minister the other day talking about the great injustice and evil of the men in white robes, the Ku Klux Klan, that roamed the country in the South, and they did great wrong to civil rights and to morality. And now we have black-robed men, and that’s what you’re talking about.”
