Not true. What actually happened is that several people have *declared* them false. Those people have IMO exactly the same level of credibility as Vaj -- namely none. No one has presented verifiable facts yet. Did you even *notice* that feste did *exactly* what he was accusing Vaj of? He just slung insults, and presented not even a single supposed fact. > When asked to back up these assertions, the best he could > come up with, was "he heard it from someone" Yup. The people piling on didn't even go that far. They just claimed things *as if they were facts*, but without anything that could enable anyone to determine whether they were really facts or not. In other words, on one level what we seem to have here is a pissing contest, in which both sides are saying, "What I've heard is better than what you've heard." I call it total bullshit, on all sides. As for the "piling on" thang that Sal brings up, it *would* have been possible for Richard Nelson or others to just post a few verifiable facts (y'know...stuff including dates and contact information and where one could go to verify their claims) and leave it at that. They did not. What they did was to do *exactly* the same thing that Vaj did -- make a bunch of unverifiable claims -- and then proceed to call him names. So what it looks like from my side is 1) a pissing contest in which no one is presenting any facts, only hearsay, and 2) a situation in which the supposed TM supporters got their attachment buttons pushed so big-time that they've gone bat- shit crazy trying to call Vaj names and claim he has no credibility. Well...surprise. They don't have any, either. Everybody's just making claims. One side is also going bat- shit crazy trying to hurl insults. Since no one in this pissing contest has the least bit of credibility, I'm going to go with the "side" hurling the least number of personal insults as the "winner." And as always, that's *not* the "TM supporters." > --- In [email protected], Sal Sunshine <salsunshine@> > wrote: > > > > A pile-on just wouldn't be the same without > > a drive-by from feste. > > > > Sal > > > > On May 25, 2011, at 2:42 PM, feste37 wrote: > > > > Vaj reminds me of the wacko political right who will say > > anything to put their Democratic enemies in a bad light. > > For example, the claims in the 1990s that Bill Clinton was > > involved in drug-running and that Vince Foster, the Clinton > > aide, was murdered.
