2. Great interview.
I watched the entire interview at Democracy Now!

- http://www.democracynow.org/2009/9/4/republican_gomorrah_inside_the_movement_that">“Republican Gomorrah: Inside the Movement that Shattered the Party”; or they've been broken down into these 3 segments at Youtube:

And here are some quotes from his book that I found interesting:

"I found a cause (religion) large enough to immerse my insecurities, that was large enough to justify whatever I wanted it to." - Newt Gingrich

"Faith in a holy cause is really a substitute for the loss of faith in ourselves. " - Eric Hoffer, "True Believer"

"Sadomasochism is what defines the central character of the Republican follower of today." - Max Blumenthal


- And the discussion concerning James Dobson's use his training as a child psychologist to gain the trust (control) of Republican leaders who had traumatic childhoods of beatings and spankings is priceless.
