Defunders of Liberty
By THOMAS FRANK
Published: August 29, 2006
Before he became K Streets most enterprising racketeer, Jack Abramoff was best known as a sort of young Robespierre of the Reagan Revolution. In 1983, as chairman of the College Republicans, he declared that he and his minions did not seek peaceful coexistence with the left. Our job is to remove them from power permanently.
By all accounts, Abramoff carried out this mission with a Ramboesque single-mindedness. A ferocious latter-day red-baiter, he seems to have encountered Communists everywhere he went in early-80s America, fighting them (literally, with his fists) on campus, detecting their influence in the nuclear freeze movement, scheming to checkmate students worried about El Salvador by calling attention to the crimes of their beloved Soviet Union. As a reward he got his handsome mug on the cover of the John Birch Societys Review of the News.

I have bad news for the G.O.P. regarding that promising new bloc of voters, the South Park Republicans. It turns out theyre not Republicans, at least not anymore.
