Nicely Said

I just got my first issue of Jim Hightower's neat little newsletter, "The Hightower Lowdown".  The front page has a quote that pretty well summarizes today's Christian Right and Republican Party.  It's attributed to a French writer and economist, Frederic Bastiat, in 1850.  It's worth repeating and remembering:
"When plunder becomes a way of life for a group of men living in society, they create for themselves, in the course of time, a legal system that authorizes it and a moral code that glorifies it."
