Let's Shut Them Down

[Charles Drago]

And any and all rabble-rousing bullshit along the lines of "Let's shut them down" that doesn't include an explicit understanding of just who "we" are in -- and what resources we bring to -- this fight is as counter-productive as anything I can point to in the long, failed history of this fight.

How much closer are we to justice for JFK today than we were at 12:31 PM, Dallas time, on November 22, 1963?

One thing I'm sure of, assuming an elitist position of eloquence and stylish writing is the shortest guaranteed route to never having any results, no matter how much the opposite is inferred. America wasn't formed by tea cup rattlers...

Albert,

I never thought I'd see the day when you would join the ranks of the intellectually destitute who, when their "ideas" are exposed as, in your case, vapid and counter-productive bleatings, desperately resort to demonizing thoughtfulness, erudition, and, especially in my case, literary gifts.

This is not the first time I've been on the receiving end of such metaphorical book-burning. You now clearly stand with the role models "Colby" and his ilk.

And by the by, thanks for the much-needed laugh you provided with, "America wasn't formed by tea cup rattlers ... "

This "insight" is worthy of your earlier, self-humiliating "The Russia/Cuba red-dipping of Oswald made him a better patsy, but if you think about it they never used it. Well, maybe in the cover-up with the WWIII virus but never directly".

Who writes your material, Bucky Katt?

So by all means, carry on with your "Let's shut them down!" exhortations -- pure emotional blather devoid of all discernible thought, brutally espoused, unintelligibly written.

But if somehow you do manage to provide a credible, readable strategy for "shutting them down," then I'll do my best to evaluate it fairly.

While I'm waiting, I'll spend a year or two developing my backhand.
