Hum....

when confronted with the notion that the Great Massed
were Following the Correct Party Line as David Kohr 
has presented it, knowing as he does, the True
Interpretation of the Correct Party Line, being a
Valiant member of the Van Guard Party, I merely
went wondering about the minor matter of how
the Voting Population threw out the Two CongreCritters
who had voted against the Gulf Of Tonkien Resolution.

This is what David Means when he says that I 
do not back up my notions .....


But then again, he is, as he likes to point out,
a Graduate Student, and Hence, clearly far more Learned
the myself, a mere lowly PeeOn with a bit of learning,
and some serious understanding about "Your Friend the M-14."

When we have attempted to point out to David that he 
can read new things that have been put out there from
both NLF and NVA sources, these he does not wish to deal with....

They are Not Correct Sources, in some sense, as they
do not agree with the position that was Clearly True
during the War In Viet Nam.... and Actually confirm
certain positions presented by 
TheCultrualImperialistGenocidalWarMongeringWhiteRacistAmericanCulture.

So Carry on David....

some of us will still be bringing home the tribe,
and that is what we do....

ciao

And I pointed out several times that I never, ever said "a majority" (the
kind that wins elections) seriously doubted the threat posed by the
Vietnamese Communists, merely "a great many".  Therefore drieux's
"refutation" is simply wrong.

Poorly-written satire is merely another typical cowardly, puerile attempt
at character defamation, and is apparently a standard tactic of drieux's.
Perhaps cogent argument takes too much effort, and isn't as much fun?

In fact, I have "dealt with them", but do not reach the same conclusions
you do.  But you continually ignore this point, because it does not further
your efforts at character assassination.

And look, drieux has once again pulled the child's prank of cross-posting
to talk.politics.misc to expand the flame war!

This is what really truly pisses me off about drieux's trash:

I put forth one or two interpretations of the war with which drieux does
not agree, and I am pinned as a Communist agent.  Perhaps to avoid the
rebuttal which would follow should he attempt to buttress this absurdity
with supporting evidence, he merely repeats it _ad nauseam_ without the
slightest effort to "back up his notions".

drieux is acting like a reactionary McCarthy-ist fabricator of the highest
degree.  (And *this* claim is substantiated by the excerpt above, and the
utter lack of evidence to back it.)

Having had enough, I elect to have none.  Another asshole who attempts to
dominate a newsgroup added to the kill files (mail and news)!  Sorry I won't
see the reply which is sure to be full of whines.
