What a joke, but it is The Nation, after all.:)
You may have seen it on The Colbert Report. A proposed walled
city of “patriots,” known as The Citadel, received the particular dose
of sarcastic humor the show reserves for militiamen and gun nuts.
Colbert’s reading of the requirement that all patriot residents must own
one AR-15 and 1,000 rounds of ammunition, and periodically prove their
weapons’ proficiency, drew the most laughs from the audience.
Six months
later, this past June, when several of the Citadel’s principals
appeared on Glenn Beck’s television show, the tone was just the
opposite. A measured, serious discussion occurred, and the pros and cons
debated of patriots’ settling in mountainous Benewah County, Idaho, and
building a city where Thomas Jefferson’s “rightful liberty” would rule,
and employment be provided in a weapons-manufacturing facility.
More @ "THE NATION"!:)
Militiamen.....what morons.
