The Beckian Wing of Conservatism
Incidentally, I know some people are going to doubt that a book that insane ever existed. Well, guess what? You can even buy a used copy on amazon.com:

You mean "As I peek out from under the couch where I was hiding these last few days..."
This kind of right-wing craziness has been around for a long time. When I was a kid, John Birchers handed out a pamphlet called "COMMUNISM, HYPNOTISM, AND THE BEATLES." The thesis of this screed involved the notion that the Beatles were a Communist plot to hypnotize and subvert American youth. That was around 1965, if memory serves.
Nothing has really changed, has it?
