Beware when politicos speak!
Phyllis Schlafly would think nothing of trying to ban speech on the internet when it is something that she doesn't agree with.
Horrors. I'm agreeing with Phyllis Schlafly. I know I'm going to kick myself tomorrow for saying this, but I found that to be a very nice rant against Big Brother in many of its manifestations. Of course, we still have Little Brother (the family), and Cousin Elmer (the Church), but isn't it nice to see that the RRR is on our side on such an important issue.

An interesting allegation. I wonder if it is merely rhetoric or if Jim has any evidence to backup this statement? Does Jim know who Phyllis' son is? S a n d y ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
