I can't believe you are this simple minded. I posted a notice of the book because it was on a relevant topic and it looked interesting. I STILL HAVEN'T READ IT. I can't believe you are this childish in your thinking. I recommend the Nelson book because I THINK HE HAS IT RIGHT. I have no idea yet about the other one. Are you really this dumb?
Your remark about Hersh displays another of your tendencies. If anyone has anything wrong, then you dismiss their work as worthless. If we applied that standard to you, since you have pegged me wrong, we should reject everything you've ever done. I am coming to believe that both phrases apply: you are block headed and simple minded.

1.) You posted a blurb for the book on Spartacus.
Why would you do that if you had read and disagreed with the book?
You yourself have said that you wanted to publicize the Nelson book since you waned to push the LBJ angle. Is that not consistent with what you did with Farrell?
2.) This is what I said about your approaches to Douglass and Nelson: NO person who understands the true achievement of JFK and the Unspeakable could compare it in any way to Nelson. And I truly believe that.
Part of this, as i said, is the quality of the base materials. I mean are there any references to Sy Hersh's Dark Side of Camelot or JFK and MM in Douglass?
Nelson had no problem with that and much more.
