paraphrastic redux - sfa - September 2004 Frank's Kansas Chapter Eight- Happy Captives (only through page 159) --------- [paragraph# (page# first word)] 342 (p157 I) [nothing significant] 343 (p157 this) [nothing significant] 344 (p158 the) [nothing significant] 345 (p158 John) John Altevogt, who has been GOP chairman for a county and has had a column in the Kansas City Star, has said repeatedly that a liberal ruling-class has severely persecuted some religious conservatives. 346 (p158 the) Altevogt has made the obviously false claim that the "Mainstream Coalition" is a hate group that has caused many people who have hated Jews or black people as a class to hate the members of the "evangelical Christian political movement". He has claimed as well to be "reminded", by a series of news stories embarrassing to one of his favorite "Cons", of lynch mob violence against black people. 347 (p159 this) Some "Cons" in Kansas find Altevogt "inspiring" rather than, as would be more apt, embarrassing. The backlash movement has some followers who blame their own failures on their abuse by a depraved liberal elite. 348 (p159 in) Altevogt has adapted many ideas and phrases which once served leftist rhetoric. 349 (p160 Dwight) ==============
