Anyone hear of the documentary "Agenda:Grinding America Down"? Scary stuff.

Hubby got a link in an e-mail from one of his far-right co-workers. This is the first I'd hear of it or SAICFF (San Antonio Independent Christian Film Festival).

1. No surprise

The film maker was Idaho legislator Curtis Bowers, a right-wing wacko of the first order (which is basically a prerequisite for public office in Idaho). The guy is still carrying McCarthy's flag and hoping to re-ignite America's fear of dirty commies.

I'll pass, thanks.

5. I should have thought of looking up Bowers when the name seemed familiar. Thanks for the "head slap"

Duh!

2. Yes. One of the doctors I work with left a flyer about it when he gave us our xmas cards.

The family homeschools, are quiverfulls (think Duggars but on a smaller scale). I was royally pissed when I saw the flyer with the hammer and sickle, and pretty much figured what it was about. He also included a copy of the US Constitution in the family letter we all got. Sad thing is he's a nice guy, just really, really, right wing whacked.

6. Thanks for sharing. Yes, the guy who sent the e-mail is a really nice guy, and really not all that

religious, certainly not a fundie. But he does seem to be moving pretty far to the right and becoming more and more xenophobic.

4. JULIE!!! Good to see you too. Yes they're creeping me out, I hadn't heard of this documentary

before, granted I've been too busy and broke to pay much attention, but I thought I was keeping up fairly well....guess not.
