That's Tom DiLorenzo's name for the Southern
Poverty Law Center (SPLC).
Surely you know them. These are the folks whose fundraising letters scare old ladies into sending them their Social Security checks.
They warn about groups like the Ku Klux Klan, which today has about 3000 members in the entire country and whose every public appearance sees them outnumbered 1000 to 1.
The SPLC's major role is smearing decent people by associating them with the knuckle-dragging losers who populate the KKK.
Hence Judge Napolitano and Ron Paul have been smeared, as has -- if you can believe it -- the exceptionally decent and kind Michael Boldin, founder of the Tenth Amendment Center, who cooperates with both left and right to get decentralist measures passed.
Well, something's up over there.
Their founder, Morris Dees, has been kicked out, and his biography scrubbed from the website.
We have no idea why.
But what a fitting end to a career in which Dees himself attempted to do this very thing to countless people whose only crime was to disagree with him politically.
Scott Adams, creator of Dilbert, told me it's helped him to have "F U money" so he can say what he darn well pleases without fear of smears.
Agreed.
But not just "F U money." Also: a loyal audience that doesn't care what evil people say or think about you.
And here again is why you should master email.
Not just because email is king when it comes to sales, not just because an email list is more lucrative than you can possibly imagine, and not just because your competitors have no idea what they're doing with email and you'll crush them like a bug if you follow my instructions.
But also because you're building a relationship with folks who will have your back through thick and thin.
The Soviet Poverty Lie Center can do their worst, and you still have this amazing asset -- your email list -- putting dough in your pocket.
Facebook can ban you, and the bad guys can smear you, but you own your email list.
And folks, I'm the master of email.
I'll teach you everything I know.
But I'm on the verge of withdrawing my soup-to-nuts, leave-nothing-out training course.
Get it while you still can:
