Murh.. Muhahaha… Kudos to Salon for getting this turkey to give an interview; as noxious as he is, I’m glad I have a chance to beat Glenn Greenwald to the punch a bit, I imagine he will be able to tear this guy apart much better than I.
Before we start peeling apart the spin and defenses, lets take a look at the man’s history. The Wikipedia bio of Jerome Corsi, member of the Constitutional party (originally called the U.S. Taxpayers Party), which has such august supporters like Pat Buchanan, Bob Smith, and minuteman founder Jim Gilchrist. Lovely company he keeps, old school. “constution in exile” and “anti-UN New World order” paranoids. Read the full Constitutional party entry, it’s pretty hair curling.
In the interest of space and because it’s getting late, I’m just going to give the reality-based translation to the first page of his questions, with a link back to the original page.
What's the book about?
How us pure Americans are going to get our bodily fluids sapped and impurified by those Icky Brown People, and the French, I mean Canadians.
What you seem to foresee, however, is something that would go further than the European Union and actually dissolve the United States.
Evil liberals have destroyed the nations of Europe, who are soon going to soon be Muslim because they didn’t keep out those icky brown people. If we don’t go into full frothing paranoid mode, we won’t be able to invade other countries at will, because that went so well the last time around.
So what's the motive on the part of the American government and American corporations in forming this North American Union? That wasn't much discussed in your book.
The icky brown people (and French) are going to take our jobs and stuff. Never mind we ran a political hit job that handed re-election to the shrub, bosom buddy with the Enron, Wal-Mart, Halliburton, and any other multi-national that was willing to pay up. Never mind that.
See? translating a frothing wingnut is easy, fun for the entire family!
P.S. Couldn't get the links to work. working links on my blog.
