Rethugs are a cult---of "character"?!

[Toon Me Out]

OK--old news, but it's organically rippling through most everything that's happening in the
Rethug Pod People Zone. They've been using this IBLP-IACC "Cities of Character/Character First"
faux-secular ruse for a decade now to help shut down criticisms of their policies at the local level,
while they seek to re-define "their" larger America...not ours.

You may wish to examine if you yourself are currently residing in a "City of Character"
(LIST):

If so, be aware that your city has paid tax monies for that "distinction", making this
another hand-out to flatulent fundamentalist parasites. Hey, Palin was jiggy with it...

One city wised up to their ruse (snip): "Although the IACC and Character First! programs are secular, Talvi deduced (while attending a seminar) that the Character Training Institute is a front group for the IBLP."
...(and)...
"More significant than the IACC’s ties to the IBLP, perhaps, is its organizational character. In 2006, Arizona State Treasurer David Petersen was forced to resign after taking more than $4,000 in kickbacks to promote use of the Character First! program in public schools."
