SHOULD SEN. LARRY CRAIG RESIGN?

Dave, you must have adored the Grand Dragon of the KKK.

Thank u, for contriving to inspire me with his memory, Blatham,
that my thoughts may rest upon a fine American today.

Shucks. Don't even mention it.

Can I be of any additional assistance re American hero figures and patriots not presently gracing your mantle or bathroom walls?
One might be able to locate, via Ebay, one of J. Edgar Hoover's floral print dresses.

Let me know. Real America ought not to be forgotten.

Blatham,
does your idea of what is REAL always come from third-hand hearsay
taken from the disgruntled widows of dead people who cannot confirm that thay ever defamed
the late American hero ?

or do u reserve this technique of analysing reality
to defiling deceased Anti-communist heros who can no longer defend their reputations ??

For a black Jewish man with Navajo and French ancestry, you seem rather testy and out of sorts today.

Lest any citizen of A2K be mislead,
this only represents Mr. Blatham 's best attempt at humor.

This lake is catch and release, isn't it?

Feel free to swim as you choose, omsig.

I think we should open "The Larry Craig Center". The first place where men can meet in a legal private place for BJs.

Why not.

Dave would love it in the world of McCarthy and Pinochet, in which someone who is merely suspected of having differing political views would forthwith be tossed from a plane.

Dave, anyone who would be proud of having been a spy for HUAC is beneath contempt.

"I'm not gay and never have been gay" but I know where the gay frequented tearooms are in the airports and what the signals are when I get eye contact through the cracks in the stalls. Of course, thereby hangs the crux of the entrapment. The plainclothesman also knows the come hither eye contact ploy and knows he's got a sucker (double entendre intended) on the hook.

I have a feeling Craig's wife is going to insist on being a companion on any plane trips in the future. That is, unless she's savvy and there's an arrangement.

Craig's wide stance might work on the golf course but I doubt it will hold up in court.

Senator Craig has served America very, very well
in doing his best to resist socialism and defend the individualism
and personal freedom upon which America was based.
He was one of the BEST members of the US Senate.

I doubt that his replacement will be as good an American;
i.e., liberty will likely be less safe in his replacement 's keeping.

How on earth did a post written in 1950 wormhole up into the present?

Well, I lived thru the Third World War with them and the commies.
Thanx, in part, to their most admirable efforts, we won.

Yeah, McCarthy and Pinochet both did good jobs on the commies.
Thay earned our love, reverence and gratitude.

You need to understand OmSig that in the world where deeds are publicly judged and recounted by, for the most part, by leftists, McCarthy and Pinochet have both been indelibly branded as at least villains, and more probably monsters.

I don't admire either of these gentlemen. On the contrary, I find both of them deplorable, but it is ironic that leftists/liberals/progressives who admonish one and all to "walk a mile in another man's moccasins" before judging a man, have no problem assigning both men, with absolute certainty, to the darkest shadows of history.

Can the same be said for their assessment of Lenin, Stalin, Ho Chi Minh, Castro, Che, Mugabe, or Mao (to name but a few)?

Throw out Mao's history for discussion and it is unlikely that you will find too many people praising him up the ying-yang and denying his sins, but you will find a whole host of folks who insist that it is important to view his actions within "context."

What will be the reaction of these same people to McCarthy, Pinochet, The Shah, and Samoza (to name but a few)? Absolute evil! Only an equally evil person or some senile fool would suggest that there might have been another side to their actions.

Leftists/Liberals/Progressives/Democrats chortle with glee when they believe the hypocrisy of Republicans is revealed, but they are blind to the revelation of their own.

There have been woefully few people who have dedicated themselves to the greater good of their people, and been willing to sacrifice all they have to advance such a cause. None, absolutely none, of the figures cited in this post rise to such a level of honor.

Communism - either in the theoretical or applied sense - is not synonymous with Evil. All who oppose and have opposed Communism are not forgiven "lesser" sins because they were committed in the struggle against Evil. Pinochet, for example, is a murderous tyrant. That he murdered communists and those who may or may not have been affiliated with them is not excusable.

McCarthy, unlike Pinochet, was not responsible for the murder or torture of any of his targets, and yet he probably tops the Monster list of most American leftists/Liberals/Progressives.

Somewhere in the Cosmos there is an Ultimate Judge and he is laughing hysterically at the insistence of leftists/Liberals/Progressives to bring Senator McCarthy to the front of the line for divine retribution.
