Selmabai--
You found no need to object when comradebab keeps on with his silly,
meaningless refrain "Question Everything!" Even when he should know that
his Utopia has been consigned to the dustbin of histoire!
Could we possibly borrow that jewboy of yours to finish the unfinished
extremity Marx left behind? ;--))

Mario,
Is there a paucity of quotes that we have to be
treated to this Reaganoid gemstone of wisdom, over and
over again :-)
Which brings me to another quote, a fellow
right-winger used in connection with Rajan Parriker
"doing God's work".
Now, I was curious about this phrase and its origin.
It turns out, in 1190, the Jews being relentlessly
persecuted in York, Great Britain, barricaded
themselves at Clifford Tower. Leading the Christian
mob was a hermit, who kept yelling to the Christians
"you are doing God's work". One of the Jews, threw a
stone from the tower which unfortunately landed on the
hermit and killed him. This enflamed the mob even
more. The Jews inside growing desperate committed mass
suicide. Those that chose to leave the tower was
massacred by the Christian mob.
Moral of the story: We have to be careful when doing
God's work in Goa.
