The Skousenites are actually quite dangerous.

Their actions discredit legitimate patriots who have real concerns about anti Western totalitarianism and other very real existential threats.

Therefore, I must conclude that either A) The Skousenites are really stupid, or, B) The Skousenites actually are false flag recruits of said anti Western fiends.

No one could have predicted that Glenn Beck’s mentor was a batshit crazy loon.

Cicero was a Christian?
Did he have a time machine?

Whoops, I put this comment in the wrong place, sorry!

Wow, you got me on that one; I’ve lived Behind The Zion Curtain (Utah) for more than 30 years and this is the first time I’ve heard of George Wythe U. Not surprising that it’s down’ta Cedar (as we say here); Cedar City, while not as bad as some parts of Utah, is in the southern part of the state and that’s the home of polygamists, waaaay fundie Mormons, anti-UN resolutions, and masturbatory gun love. W. Cleon Skousen is considered a crackpot even here in Utah, so any place that uses his jabberings as a textbook has got to be beyond the pale.

‘Leap,’ first published in 1981, is a heavily illustrated and factually challenged attempt to explain American history through an unspoken lens of Mormon theology.

Sounds hilarious.
