Can I just say how much I love that you don't shy away from putting out these political updates on this blog? Too many people are too timid and passive which leads to a form of acceptance of this type of disgusting right-wing practice. I applaud you for keeping your outrage in the open.
As Richard Hofstadter's fine book Anti-Intellectualism in America demonstrates, this kind of clerical lynching goes as far back as the early 1800s. Electronic media has simply made it better known. Look at Father Coughlin in the Thirties.
