[The Backlash Cometh]

You'll understand why the Constitution means absolutely nothing to them. What we need to do is start identify their cells, because the authoritarian personality is just a general description of a kind of character, or lack of. They crop up everywhere, and our misfortune is that they are all attracted to the same kind of president.

Here's a few I've identified:

Southern gentlemen, and their grunts.
Neo-cons
Oil industry people
Wall Street financiers

The bottom line is that they think they are above the law. And unfortunately, Nancy Pelosi is an enabler, in that regard.
