The most dangerous man in America
Grover Norquist leads an organization called Americans for Tax Reform. For 20 years, Norquist has been considered an extremist advocate for government reduction and radical tax reform. Now he is welcomed at the White House and heads up two projects that will change the federal government in radical ways, most of which to the benefit of the wealthy and powerful at the sacrifice of programs for middle Americans, the aged and disabled.
Each Wednesday in Washington, Norquist meets with a group of conservative activists who plot the approach to achieving their goals. A coordinated and militant group, they have a major role in shaping the political dialog you hear on conservative talk radio and see on the evening television news.
Grover Norquist and people like him who practice "take no prisoners" politics are a threat to democracy, America's place in the world and the welfare of all Americans. Because of his leadership role, he is the most dangerous man in America.
