Hi Peter,
Assassination Porn is defined as "excessive, heated discussions between CTs and LNers." Titallating, but with no redeeming social value.
I confess to have produced more than my share of AP in my day...but now that I'm over here those days are over!:iluvu:
Hi Cliff,
I'm glad you're here. Long ago, you and I thought of ourselves as allies at EF.
That being noted, a caveat seems in order: Accessories after the fact (in my Constitutionally protected, deeply informed opinion) to regicide the likes of Von Pein and Lamson are not welcome here. Nor are one-sided debates with them.
Charles,
Allies we were and allies we I feel we shall continue to be.
Debates with LNers constitute Assassination Porn. I appreciate the opportunity to come over here and work in an Assassination Porn-free environment. Conspiracy is not a question to argue over but a fact to be observed.
I'm am your latest refugee from the EF. If Lamson and Von Pein were allowed here I wouldn't be here.
Quote:In other words, please vent your spleen elsewhere.
Consider my spleen pre-vented.
Quote:All they're looking for is engagement -- and with it, the continuation of a cover-up designed not to win an argument, but rather to prolong it.
No one at DPF will be permitted to aid and abet the bastards.
As for your quarrel with Jim DiEugenio: You are attempting to transplant it from the EF to DPF, and we will have none of it here.
Repeat: None of it.
If you wish to challenge Jim on any salient points, then by all means do so.
Yes, his characterization of the case as "super-humanly complex" becomes problematic when making the case for conspiracy.
As I noted above, my stand is that conspiracy is not a question to argue but a fact to observe. Going into the 50th I think its important for those who seek to be the "faces" of critical research not argue the case for conspiracy on technical grounds, which is exactly what Jim does.
Quote:Jim, I encourage you to engage Cliff in a similar fashion.
And before anyone points out that, given past public indiscretions on my part, I am now playing the role of The Pot to others' portrayals of The Kettle ... Well, no one knows sin as intimately as a sinner knows it.
I'm making my best effort to restore intellectual discipline and perhaps even a touch of class to my contributions here. I shall expect nothing less from DPF correspondents.
Thanks.
You won't have any trouble from me, Charles. I think I've made my point that I'm not to be trifled with.
I'm only interested in pursuing my hobby in good spirit... and paying homage to Phil Dragoo...eyes precise as the end of Burrough's newspaper spoon...
