Michael Steele's latest cult-type threat to other Republicans that 'if you don't do as we say', and 'vote in lock-step with us' [paraphrasing], not only reinforces the reality that the Republican Party is becoming more and more like a cult, but it is perpetually undermining true democracy. It wasn’t until this past year and a half that I was forced to see clearly how both Jim Jones, David Koresh, Adolf Hitler and others were able to immobilize an entire people towards a definitive end - even to death. The constant propaganda, the lies, praying on fears and anxieties, the not-so-subtle hints of wanting a pure race and society, extreme hatred that is constantly being fed by O’Reilly, Beck, Limbaugh, Hannity, Dobbs, Malkin, Bachmann, the Palin rallies, top politicians, clergy, the Teabaggers and the Internet. The Republican Party/Right-Wing Extremists have their Jim Jones prototypes in variety and in multiplicity.
