[CTRL] Larry Flynt Stoned
-Caveat Lector- January 16, 1999 JOURNAL/ By FRANK RICH Larry Flynt Stoned We didn't need Larry Flynt to tell us that Bob Barr is a hypocrite. The Georgia Congressman's sleazy marital history was already public back in '96 when he had the gall to champion an absurd bill called the Defense of Marriage Act -- which that other proud defender of marriage, Bill Clinton, then signed into law. But we may need Larry Flynt anyway -- not to expose any impeachment manager's sex life but simply because his very presence exposes the disingenuousness of everybody else, conservative and liberal, Republican and Democrat, press and public, who inhabits the epic Bosch canvas that is Monicagate. In the land of the pious hypocrite, the honest pornographer is king. After a year in which the President repeatedly told us he didn't have sex with that woman, and his antagonists repeatedly told us that their case "is not about sex," and the media constantly lamented how horribly sad they were to be covering this sex-driven, albeit lucrative, story, Mr. Flynt's candor is downright refreshing. In interviews, he refers to himself as a "smut publisher" who wants "to sell [his] magazine," not a public-minded seeker of truth. He openly declares his partisanship ("I love Clinton. He's a great President.") and eagerly declares his hope to have "the effect of derailing the impeachment process." The Hustler editor who serves as Mr. Flynt's collaborator in tracking down Congressional trysts unabashedly describes their enterprise as "vandalism," not journalism. It is almost too delicious to watch Mr. Flynt throw his higher-minded colleagues in the news business into conniptions. Washington's bloviator-in- chief, David Broder, brooded on PBS about how "the mainstream press" is now having its agenda set by "the bottom-feeders in our business" -- and yet he works for the paper (The Washington Post) that first asked the adultery question to a Presidential candidate (Gary Hart) and is a regular on "Meet the Press," the first mainstream Sunday gabfest that made a panelist out of Matt Drudge, the Clinton-haters' answer to Flynt (though not as factually accurate). Mr. Flynt's antics have similarly prompted many mainstream TV news outlets -- CNBC, ABC's "20/ 20," CNN, "CBS This Morning" -- to demonstrate yet again that, for all their pious declarations to the contrary, the scandals they care most about are those with sex. The sexual allegations about Mr. Barr have received far more play than the revelations of the Congressman's involvement with a white supremacist organization -- much as TV pursued Monica rather than Clinton fund-raising and wag-the-dog scandals, and largely ignored Henry Hyde's S.L. shenanigans and Dan Burton's campaign-finance chicanery to air their sexual histories instead. The viewing audience, which tells pollsters it's had enough sex, exercises its own hypocrisy by rewarding Mr. Flynt's appearance on "Rivera Live" with the show's highest rating since the O. J. civil verdict. The other hypocrites unmasked by Mr. Flynt's pranks could fill a cabinet department. It's hard to stop laughing when Dick Morris, who sucked prostitutes' toes while on the White House payroll, decries the publisher for "degrading American politics." Jerry Falwell, a past Flynt legal foe, now goes on TV to condemn his old adversary's tactics -- never mind that Mr. Falwell himself marketed a video accusing the President of murder. Conservative politicians and publications that happily feasted on a tabloid's purchase of Gennifer Flowers's revelations and the recent Drudge-spread hoax about an illegitimate Clinton son are now fuming about Mr. Flynt. Liberals and feminists who vehemently attacked a Hollywood film for ostensibly sanitizing the Hustler publisher's odious depiction of women are curiously silent about his pursuit of Barr Co. As for the President, his spokesman, Joe Lockhart, says that his boss wants Mr. Flynt to "cease and desist." Oh, puh-leeze! Larry Flynt is a bull in the china shop of false pieties, empty pretensions and sexual sermonizing that have brought us to this low moment in American history. On Thursday, alas, he checked into a Los Angeles hospital with pneumonia. The networks that have been broadcasting soap operas rather than the Senate trial their anchors keep telling us is "historic" can only pray that Mr. Flynt, who has it in his power to make impeachment must-see TV again, gets well soon.

I have long suspected that the reason the ruling elites ban all mind altering drugs and not just the harmful ones is that they fear that people will come to realize that although we live in a democracy, the opinions and well being of the majority doesn't seem to matter. People might get wise to the strange notion that our young men should fight in wars that don't make sense, or that the ever growing income/welath gap is not just or that our ruling elites are not only not endowed with any particular wisdom but that through the highly controlled mainstream media, we are manipulated and kept in the dark.

[CTRL] Republican Hate Rhetoric Turns Deadly
-Caveat Lector- Tom J. Wright A Semi-Weekly Column of Political Commentary January 1-January 15, 1999 Republican Hate Rhetoric Turns Deadly: Somebody Stop Them Before They Kill Again "Brains you know, are suspect in the Republican Party." --Walter Lippmann, famous American political commentator, December 14, 1974 "Indeed there are some Republicans I would trust with anything-anything, that is, except public office." --Adlai Stevenson, Jr. during a Presidential campaign speech in Springfield, Illinois, August 14, 1952 Although overshadowed lately by MonicaGate, the brutal beating and killing of gay University of Wyoming student Matthew Shepard, shocked the nation and disgusted people around the world. The barbarity of the murderers, who tied Matthew Shepard to a fence and beat him to death with the butts of their guns, was stunning. This vicious murder was motivated in large part, perhaps entirely, by the radical homophobia of the two men who killed him. Matthew Shepard lost his life simply because he was gay. Many other instances of homophobic acts of violence, here in the United States especially, have occurred as well. Also, hate crimes in general are on the rise across the country. An obvious question arises: Why has homophobic violence, and many other kinds of hate crimes, been rising so dramatically? And why have the intensity and ferocity of that violence become so extreme? The increase in hate crimes is a direct result of the increase in hate rhetoric. And we all know who the masters of hate are: the hard core Republican right wing. These lunatics spew out hate the way an open sewer spews out raw sewage. Here are just a few disgusting examples of Republicans at work: Conservative New York radio commentator Bob Grant once said, on the air to millions of listeners, that he wished that police had machine-gunned New York City's gay pride marchers during a 1994 parade. Grant also told one disaffected listener of his show, who was angry about one minority or another, to "Well, get a gun and go do something, then." Republican Senator Trent Lott called homosexuality a "disease", like kleptomania. Radical Republican conservative Congressman Dick Armey called fellow Congressman Barney Frank, "Barney Fag", then claimed it was a slip of the tongue. Right wing nutcase and Republican party BigWig Pat Robertson stated that Disney World in Orlando, Florida would be struck by some catastrophe because it didn't properly discriminate against gay people the way he does. The list goes on and on. The Republican Party has turned hate and scapegoating and fearmongering into a science. It's what they are good at doing. It's what they do best. And boy, are they proud of it. But so far, no one has forced conservatives to take responsibility for their hate rhetoric. This certainly includes the media, which of course is itself mostly right wing. How else do you think sick bastards like the aforementioned Bob Grant, Hitler-wannabee Pat Buchanan, the loony Nixonite G. Gordon Liddy, and all of their right wing clones throughout the country, ever get on the air? It ain't accidental, folks. Well, it is time for the American People to hold the Republicans, and their mouthpieces in the media, personally accountable for their outrageous scapegoating, inflammatory rhetoric, manipulative scare tactics, and the violence that inevitably follows. These spewers of hate must be stopped before they kill again. But we have to act quickly, because make no mistake about it, the Republican Party is a very dangerous organization, full of hubris, hyper- conservative dementia, and a ton of $$money$$. This ill-begotten monster was born with the rise to power of that famous loon Ronald "Bedtime For Bonzo" Reagan, and it's been growing ever since. The best way to stop it and these people behind it, is to vote the Republican Party out of office. And out of existence. Like the Whigs of yesteryear, it is time for the Republican Party to die. It is too infested with fanatics to be saved. Just put the thing out of its misery, for God's sake. That will leave us with the Corporate Democrats on the right, Progressives on the center left, and Libertarians somewhere in between. Also, a sincere letter of apology, signed by conservatives everywhere, should be promptly submitted to the American People, and put on display in Washington D.C. The display will serve to remind potential hatemongers everywhere that they will endure Great Pain, Suffering, and Humiliation, if they ever again attempt such crude tactics. Not only that, if the likes of Bob Grant or his ilk ever openly encourage violence against innocent citizens again, and said violence occurs, then the District Attorney of the county in which the incitement to violence was made, should promptly prosecute them as criminals, for aiding and abetting a crime.

One shows a group of prisoners photographed upon their departure from prison.. They were all dressed rather nattily, with frock coats, ties, "plantation" hats, etc. In fact, they "could have been dressed for the ball. " Shame on you, Hawk. Have you never heard of Potemkin Village? I think that the distance between us on how the slaves lived and were treated is due to two things. The living conditions and psychological environment of the slaves varied enormously between regions and plantations. I place greater credence in the slaves themselves as to what their lives were like. During the 1950s and 1960s when the South was being weaned from Jim Crow, it was common for Southern apologists to say things like "Some of my best friends..." or "We all got along fine here until those outsiders began stirring things up." [My wife attended a YWCA in the South during this time. When she and a friend arrived by car to the motel of a small town on their trip, they were frightened by the paranoia of the folks in the motel lobby. Many questions aimed at determining whether the travelers were there "to stir up trouble."] The apologists for slavery in the US are hardly alone, the phenomena is common enough. For instance, i have no doubt that if we asked the Japanese who participated in the POW camps where American prisoners were held how the prisoners were treated. They would assure the questioner that the treatment was fair and reasonable. My recollection is that Americans died in the Japanese POW camps at a rate 8 times greater than they died in the camps of Nazi Germany. Nothing is more enlightening on this issue than to read Bataan Death March which lets the American prisoners speak for themselves. Likewise the ex-slaves speak for themselves. Their opinions vary considerably but overall the picture emerges of mostly semi-isolated lives on plantations of fewer than 10 slaves having brutal lives of onerous labor in the fields with no regard shown for families or respect for person. Yes, there are exceptions, such as owner buying a comely mulatto girl who could sew after a fashion and taking her back home, installing her in a bedroom with a a needle and thread and announcing to the Mrs. that they had a new seamstress. This was hardly a good life for either the slave girl or the mistress but i suppose you could contend that it was a pleasant life of ease if your thinking allows it.

Welcome back, Hawk. Many of us missed hearing your arguments however we disagreed because your supporting evidence offered something to get one's teeth into. I'm not sure what to say regarding your remarks concerning the scriptures since, apparently, some are grievously offended by any mention of spiritual or moral matters - at least they are offended when scriptures are referenced as opposed to, say, Urantia channeled baloney. I will only point out that we are directed away from legalism and toward general principles so i am puzzled by your statement that the principles cannot be applied in the specific. It seems to me that they could then never be applied. I am reminded of something a priest said at a class for the general public on biblical exegesis. The priest was British and supposedly a scholar of considerable talent. (Incidentally, this class was free, a not uncommon event in those days of the 60s.) He sarcastically said that whenever the bureaucrats or politicians of Britain commented on the golden rule and other such, they would say, "Well, that's all well and good but one cannot run an empire on ideals." Of course, at this time the empire had already dissolved. You speak of the slave mentality and i know that it lives in many people. However, IMO the root of it is in oppression. When folks get so frustrated and despair of being allowed to do, they sometimes sort of give up and go along with the notion that if something good is going to happen, it must come from massah (the corporation, government, church, et al). Of course this is not confined to actual ex-slaves. You ask about what state had the removal of thumbs as punishment for learning to read. The plantations were in the bush. The law was massah and vice versa. When you read the narratives of the ex-slaves your eyes are opened. The law is irrelevant when it is not available and when the entire economy depended upon supporting massah's heroic efforts to keep everyone in their place. Literate thinking slaves are an obvious threat. Why do you think our own news media is so carefully controlled? The weak spot in the plantation was the owner's children, their eagerness to share what they know and show off at the same time. When a slave learned to read, he taught others. When a plantation had more than, say, a score of slaves, they would meet at night in culverts or ditches with the overhead covered with branches and twigs. They told each other about what was going on, 10 pair of eyes in different places could see a lot. With good fortune, one would teach reading. When a slave stopped overnight attached to plantation visitors, they could hear about things far away and give information in return. These underground schools were vital to the encouragement that comes from camaraderie. The above remark applies to prayer also. Bear in mind that each plantation had its own way to deal with issues in the slave community, namely massah's way. A few, especially the large plantations with hundreds of slaves, were relatively liberal and followed their own house rules fairly consistently. Jefferson Davis ran one of these operations. Most plantation owners were rather harsh. Economics led the most intelligent owners to give their slaves just enough sustenance and rest to maintain the work. The photographs of the slaves tell the story by their faces. Jerry Apparently, many of the owners were as ignorant as the slaves about prayer. It was common for owners to forbid prayer, possibly because they did not want their slaves to have either hope or comfort or maybe because the owners really were nervous about the slaves communicating with the living god. The slaves, who like the owners apparently never heard of silent prayer or believed it ineffective, would speak their prayers into a tub of water to muffle it.

-Caveat Lector- In a message dated 1/8/99 1:16:01 AM Eastern Standard Time, [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: My understanding of law has lead me to believe that the southern states had the legal right to leave the union and that they did so lawfully. As I stated, the Supreme Court of the time was probably in agreement with this position. It was Lincoln and others in the northern states who ignored their oathes to the Constitution. Suppose that you are quite correct in saying that Jefferson Davis, Stonewall Jackson, Robert E. etc. were strictly legal. What you are missing is that more is involved with every man's actions than legality, or for that matter, profit. These men in high leadership positions knew this. What motivated them. They did not perform an act merely because it was legal, i.e. they did not act arbitrarily. They joined in the Confederacy because it stood for their way of seeing, their way of living. That way was based upon slavery. The Southern leadership could not stay in the Union without accepting a gradual change over in the dirty little condition that made their way possible. The North was not going to accept additional slave states and the opposition to slavery was growing. It was much like those doors in Deuteronomy, one leads to life and one leads to death. The strange thing is that the doors are very well marked. No mistake is possible. Many white people in the South chose life but most of the leaders chose death. To be sure, choosing life is emotional; that's because our deepest values are emotional issues with us. The sin of keeping people enslaved is emotional. The slavers may taunt those who vote for freedom as being emotional but those who would even defend slavery, much less practice it, are also being emotional. Part of their dysfunction is that they must pretend to a strange machismo of the psyche. Incidentally, in an earlier posting someone referred to the reluctance of some of the ex-slaves to their new situation and even persistent opinion that the old slave times were preferable. It was sort of like the Israelis coming out of the land of fleshpots. Some weren't so sure. Many of the slaves of Dixie were dismissed from the plantations at war's end because it simply was not profitable for the planters to keep them on. These, now vagabonds, newly freed illiterate blacks lined the roads in their trek north to find work. They had only the clothes on their backs (few received 40 and a mule). Some died on the way but others made it to partly fuel the latter part of the industrialization of America. Most freed slaves far preferred their freedom but a few never obtained a decent life and actually remembered their slavery as a better time. Even with the night patrols, the removal of thumbs for the crime of learning to read, the forbiddance of prayer, and the merciless beatings when they took a bit of extra nourishment, the commonplace forcible sex by massah and supervisors of the slave women and, if these times are any guide, of boys and girls as well, the fleshpots glowed in their remembrance. Think of the filthy crimes committed today for those fleshpots, the dismemberment of companies along with massive disruption in lives, the unnecessary wars in Vietnam, Panama, the Gulf, Grenada, Somalia. Freedom came in second when we overthrew democracies in Iran, Guatemala, Chile and installed criminal governments. Man, how do we free ourselves of this sort of blindness?

Of course, things are complicated and there were many decent Christian Southerners who smuggled slaves, spied on Southern military units, and sabotaged when possible. There were right-wing Northerners who spoke and acted for the South. There were slave holding prosperous free blacks in the South. There were a few slave holders who did treat their slaves with some shred of fairness considering the relationship. The real point is that every son of the South who involves himself in discussions about the Civil War should get down on his knees and thank God that the Union won the war thereby freeing both slave and "free" Southerner.

The legend of chosenness is part of the Jewish national myth. It applies to those who have converted as well. There is no problem here except that Christians can't usurp that title while Jews continue to exist. IMO this is not quite it. It is true that we Christians have totally usurped the scriptures and beliefs of the Jewish/Hebrew people up to the time of Christ. But i think it gets kind of complex. It has been said of Hitler that that he especially resented the Jews because while Hr, Hitler, babbled about the natural superiority of the Aryan race, he realized that the difference was that the Jews really did believe in their own superiority by virtue of being the Chosen People. This is not it either though it is an interesting theory. I think that it is a matter of some naive but determined Christians thinking that since theirs is the true religion and is built upon Judaism, it is right and natural for the Jews to be converted. They are thwarted and shocked when, after the Christian faith has been explained, the Jews still do not convert. The surprise quickly turns to anger. Martin Luther strongly believed that the Jews simply had not had the Faith explained to them properly but he, Luther, would do it right. Again, disappointment.

The Libertarians sound appealing because they at least have the good sense to know that locking up huge numbers of citizens for victimless crimes and squandering billion of dollars on the "war on drugs" is damaging to the nation. On the other hand, i heard much of what was said at their convention in 1996 and it became plain that the party leaders are mostly interested in avoiding taxes. They either believe that it is possible to have a society worth living in without expenses or their top priority is "let George pay for it" where George is you or me. This gives them plenty in common with those for whom the Republicans carry water despite the hypocritical moralizing by the conservatives. At this point i am not sufficiently familiar with the issue of going back to count the ballot the old fashioned way. Doubtlessly, there are certain efficiencies in automated vote counts for both time and money. There were charges of vote fraud when the ballots were still hand counted.

Or were you referring to the difference in income levels between the richest and poorest within a country? In Europe these are held lower by high rates of taxation and social welfare, i.e. income redistribution. Yes, one must be careful in these comparisons. It's sort of like the epidemiological studies that can make cancer rate differentials invisible by carefully selecting the population group. As you suggest, when considering income or wealth gaps, one must look at ratios of the richest to the poorest. When considering absolute income, it is important to look at medians rather than averages. Europe will never be as cohesive as the US due to differences in language. But I don't see this as being much of a factor in the Euro being a popular trading currency. Trading ties and currency stability will factor much higher. Look for the Euro to be popular in Europe, Africa, possibly Western Asia, and the Dollar to maintain its strength in Eastern Asia and the Americas. Che You are probably correct for over the next few years. The reason i believe that those nations which have the most widely shared income, wealth, knowledge, and power are going to become gradually dominant is that such a nation is naturally able to marshall superior strength in any endeavor over other countries of similar population size. Of course, this applies to the 290 million Euro Europeans compared to the US. Unless our corporate masters and their servants, the Republicans and the news media wake up fast, and there is no sign of this about to happen, the Euro folks are going to pass us economically. The international politics follows the money. Nothing has been more revealing than the way Bush and his boys passed the begging bowl so we could make war in The Gulf. The Japanese really rubbed it in when they objected to having to pay at all saying they could live with Saddam just fine. To a great extent out international leadership rests upon the memories of WWII and fears among various nations of Japan and Germany including fears from many in Japan and Germany. This condition is has weakened some and, naturally, will contine to do so with the passage of time. We didn't have to help it along with our cowboy adventures in Vietnam, Panama etc. but that is another story. DECLARATION DISCLAIMER == CTRL is a discussion and informational exchange list.

Another thing those terrible liberals of the 1960s did was help to bring a screeching halt to the corrupt way of life of the Jim Crow south.

[CTRL] And Cauldron Bubble
-Caveat Lector- December 22, 1998 ABROAD AT HOME / By ANTHONY LEWIS And Cauldron Bubble BOSTON -- Should Linda Tripp, Lucianne Goldberg and Kenneth Starr decide who is to be President of the United States? When you analyze the principal argument made for the impeachment of President Clinton, you are brought inevitably to that question. Perjury was the House Republican mantra, the argument pressed by the hard right to bring moderates to heel. In the debate, one Republican after another said he or she had to vote to impeach Bill Clinton because he lied under oath. But that proposition overlooks what the trio did. The President tried to keep his sexual improprieties secret. That was neither surprising nor ignoble. Henry Hyde and Robert Livingston did the same, and so men have done since the Creation. But Monica Lewinsky told Mrs. Tripp, a former White House employee who had been trying for years to harm President Clinton. At the urging of Ms. Goldberg, a right-wing literary agent, Mrs. Tripp taped her telephone conversations with Ms. Lewinsky. She told Paula Jones's lawyers and Mr. Starr about the tapes. The resulting trap was sprung on the President at his deposition in the Jones case. That was the fount of his troubles. So it is vital to understand how his testimony has effectively been judged. Mr. Clinton denied, famously, having had "sexual relations" with Ms. Lewinsky. The definition of that was so obscure that no jury was likely to convict him of perjury in his denial. And the House of Representatives evidently took the same view. It rejected the article of impeachment charging him with perjury in the deposition. Mr. Starr had another string for his bow. He called the President before a grand jury, where he was asked about his statements in the Jones deposition. Then Mr. Starr charged that Mr. Clinton's answers were false. Again, I doubt that a jury would have convicted Mr. Clinton of perjury. Millions of Americans saw the videotape of his grand jury appearance and most sympathized with him -- indeed, were outraged at what he was put through. But House Republicans said that the President's answers to the Starr prosecutors were perjurious. That is, answers that the House found were not perjurious at the original proceeding became high crimes when the same answers were given again. No other American would have had to undergo that second turn of the screw. Targets of prosecutors customarily invoke the Fifth Amendment; Justice Department rules discourage calling them before grand juries. But Mr. Starr, determined to get something on him after four years of fruitless investigation, guessed correctly that for political reasons the President would not refuse to testify. In truth, many House Republicans who cited perjury as their ground for impeachment had deeper reasons. They do not like this President. An unmistakable venom ran through the whole process. An astute foreign eye saw it clearly. Philip Stevens of The Financial Times wrote: "This was not about the sacred Constitution of the United States. It wasn't even honest politics. The impeachment of Bill Clinton was personal. It was an act of vengeance." Conservatives have hated Bill Clinton since the day he took office. Some conservative commentators, broadcast and print, seem obsessed by the man. Robert Livingston, before he gave up the Speaker's job, showed his distorting animus when he said: "Richard Nixon's crime was covering up a crime he did not commit. Clinton is covering up a crime he did commit." There are reasons for politicians, Democratic and Republican, to distrust Bill Clinton. He has not played straight with many of them. And the public has reason to have been offended at his false assurance that he had not had sexual relations with that woman. But those are not grounds for impeachment, or resignation, unless we are going to make the impeachment process a vote of no confidence and move toward a parliamentary system of government. In the end, I do not believe that the Senate or the public will want to reward hatred. I do not believe they will want our political fate to be decided by Linda Tripp, Lucianne Goldberg and Kenneth Starr. DECLARATION DISCLAIMER == CTRL is a discussion and informational exchange list.

[CTRL] House of Arrogance
-Caveat Lector- December 20, 1998 NYT IN AMERICA / By BOB HERBERT House of Arrogance In the end, the will of the people meant nothing. Bob Livingston couldn't have been clearer about that. His mind and the minds of his followers were closed. Even as the bombing continued in Iraq and Americans from coast to coast were clamoring for an alternative to impeachment, even as his own adulterous past was being flushed out in the grotesque invasions of privacy that inevitably followed the relentlessly prurient pursuit of the President, even as the country began to contemplate the destructive effects of a lengthy and bitter Senate trial, the Speaker-designate arrogantly and stupidly proclaimed: "Let us disregard the outside influences." The radicals on the Hill would hear nothing but the echoes of their own fanaticism. Impeach! Impeach! And that continued even after the stunning announcement yesterday morning that Mr. Livingston would quit the House. Dismayed by the partisan stampede, Richard Gephardt, the Democratic leader, warned during the impeachment debate on Friday: "In your effort to uphold the Constitution, you are trampling the Constitution." David Bonior, the Democratic whip, said: "This is wrong. It is unfair. It is unjust. At a time when events in the world and the challenges at home demand that we stand united, censure is the one solution that can bring us together. To my colleagues across the aisle, I say let go of your obsession. Listen to the American people." But the voices of reason would not be heard. Mr. Livingston and his right-wing colleagues, the Tom DeLays, the Henry Hydes, the Bob Barrs, were on a mission of destruction and would not be denied. Ordinary Americans could cry out all they wanted. They could protest and demonstrate, send faxes and E-mails. It didn't matter. The right was on the march and democracy was on the run. Representative Thomas Barrett, a Democrat from Wisconsin, tried to remind his Republican colleagues that the Constitution "does not allow you to remove a President from office because you can't stand him." He was, of course, ignored. The Republicans will pay a huge price for their brazen, utterly partisan attempt to drag a President from the White House in defiance of the will of the people. The party's contempt for the voters was arrogantly summed up by Alan Simpson, the former Senator from Wyoming, who said: "The attention span of Americans is which movie is coming out next month and whether the quarterly report on their stock will change." If the voters are the dopes that Mr. Simpson thinks they are, then come 2000 everyone will have forgotten there was an impeachment crisis. But Representative Robert Menendez, a New Jersey Democrat, was probably closer to the truth when he said, "I warn my colleagues that you will reap the bitter harvest of the unfair partisan seeds you sow today." One of the many strange events of the past couple of weeks was the way in which virtually all of the previously undecided Republicans, the so-called moderates, surrendered their independence and lined up like lackeys to follow the right wing's lead. All proclaimed loudly that they were voting on principle, but in fact it was an exercise in mass cowardice, exemplified by Representative John McHugh of upstate New York. Mr. McHugh announced on Tuesday that he would vote for impeachment. But if his decision was based on principle, he had an odd way of expressing it. The Washington Post said Mr. McHugh appeared to have no stomach for a Senate conviction or removal of the President from office. Of his colleagues in the Senate, Mr. McHugh said, "I, for one, would accept, even welcome, their mercy." In other words, let the Senate do the heavy constitutional lifting. Congressman McHugh may have wished out loud for mercy, but he clearly was too frightened of the right-wingers in the House to cast a compassionate vote himself. The G.O.P. can no longer conceal that it is a party of extremists, of right- wing absolutists, a party out of step with the political and cultural orientation of most Americans. Bob Livingston may be leaving, but his arrogant comment can still serve as his party's slogan. "Let us disregard the outside influences." Let us disregard the people.

[CTRL] Cheapening the issues
-Caveat Lector- Have you noticed how Gephardt and a few others are saying what the Republicans neither dare nor desire to say? Gephardt is saying that the sex revelations are the result of a McCarthy-like devolution of political discussion. The revelations should come to a halt because they obfuscate important. One could say that Gephardt is saying this because he may be next. Hey, who knows. IMO he is speaking out because he knows that politics is the life blood of democracy. Politics means the discussion and debate of issues so that the facts and trade offs become apparent. When meaningful discussion about he future of American society is overwhelmed by trivia, democracy loses its meaning. Why have political choice if people don't know what the choices are? The Democrats wish to discuss issues that impact the future lives of Americans. That's because they are the party of the middle class people, minorities, women, and the dispossessed. The Republicans do not wish to discuss meaningful issues because doing so clarifies their servitude to the rich and privileged. This is the reason the Republicans and the news media keep waving red flags, to titillate the public and get people to stop thinking about the interests of the nation. Thus, we hear about OJ, Jon Benet, Princess Diana, Clinton's sexual activity. It is inconvenient to base a coup on sheer willfulness, there has to be some pseudo issue dreamed up. Base it on sex and when that effort blows up in the Republican face, go to narrow legalism. But always the issues must be obscured.

(The reaction of Private Ryan was baloney - the reality is that our soldiers in WWII were never rotated. If they were front-line troops, they remained in the thick of it until the war ended, they were injured, or they were killed.

However, the final UNSCOM report stated that Iraq was proceeding as fast as it could given the presence of UNSCOM. Since Iraq could develop a serious arsenal in just a few months, President Clinton had to move fairly fast.

[CTRL] A kinder, gentler lynch mob - Part I
-Caveat Lector- A kinder, gentler lynch mob Salon, 12/15/98 THE 'PEACHY-KEEN GOP HAS SHOWN ITS TRUE COLORS -- AND THEY CONFIRM THE MOST BRAIN-DEAD RADICAL STEREOTYPES FROM THE '60S. BY GARY KAMIYA I grew up believing that Republicans were the incarnation of all evil. This was a harsh and unsophisticated judgment, but the political discourse of 1960s Berkeley, where I grew up, lacked a certain refinement. In fact, to be honest, it was pretty much taken straight from Saturday morning cartoons. In our righteous view, "the people," whoever they were, were always being "oppressed" by The Man, a bloated GOP plutocrat mouthing pious moral maxims. It went without saying that Republicans were self-righteous, mean-spirited rich white men who secretly napalmed Cambodian villages, turned loose the dogs against civil rights marchers and dug the Carpenters. They were Bad, and if we could somehow get rid of them -- meanwhile taking lots of acid and listening to Hendrix -- Good Things would happen. Later, like many of my co-religionists, I became embarrassed by these sentiments. Such crude beliefs were unseemly. Sophistication demanded a more nuanced view. Republicans, I now realized, could be decent men and women who were just parroting the country-club line. Even the Reagan Age -- that endless period I as a Californian was forced to spend under the Great Communicator's genially callous thumb, while the Woolly Mammoths died out and Ice Ages came and went across the globe -- couldn't make me return to the wooden Stalinist sloganeering of my youth. I even reevaluated the Carpenters. And then came the Starr referral and Henry Hyde and the House Judiciary Committee vote, and I realized I had gotten it right the first time. When the Republicans in the full House vote to remove President Clinton from office, as they will almost certainly do, they will prove that those brain- dead radical stereotypes about them really do apply. They will be revealed as mean-spirited, partisan hacks, hypocrites, moral absolutists hiding their craven desire for vengeance and power beneath a ridiculously transparent façade of pious "deliberation" and "respect for law." The GOP will stand exposed before all of America as the party of vicious, petty ideologues who, in their outrageous desire to undo the results of two lawful elections, seized upon a grotesquely acquired legalistic evasion that falls so far short of meeting the constitutional standard of high crimes and misdemeanors as to be laughable. Or, let's give them the benefit of the doubt, as the ever-generous New York Times did in a recent editorial. Let's assume that some of them are actually sincere in their belief that lying about sex -- in an obvious vendetta case brought by a biased and obsessed "independent" counsel who, after utterly failing to find any serious misdeeds, connived to lay a perjury trap -- constitutes an impeachable offense. But if they really believe that, then we must conclude that either their grasp of the Constitution is so weak that their fitness to sit in any elected office is highly questionable, or that they are so rigid in their moral purity as to be Torquemadas in power ties, quasi-theocratic inquisitors who would turn America into a frightening Bible Belt version of 15th century Spain or 20th century Iran. Why are the Republicans doing this? Why, defying the express wishes of the American people, are they trampling on the Constitution, weakening the presidency and inaugurating a hideous new political world of blood feuds and true hatred? And why are they ignoring the warnings from the business community -- to which they used to listen -- that impeachment is dangerous and destabilizing? The answer is simple: This is who they are. This action reflects the GOP's true nature. This is a party so desperate to burn a president they dislike at the stake that they'll incinerate the Constitution to get the fire started. All that hoo-hah a few weeks ago about how Robert Livingston was going to bring a new "moderation" to the party now that nutty professor Gingrich was gone stands revealed as empty verbiage. The truth is that this is now a party of zealots and ideologues, obsessed crusaders who have completely lost touch with the common sense, fairness and decency of the American people. Like Pol Pot's Khmer Rouge, who declared a purifying "Year Zero" when history's slate was to be wiped clean (and all nonpeasants were to be killed), these high- minded crusaders want to restore America's sense of moral purpose -- and if they have to trash the country in order to do it, well, extremism in the defense of virtue is no vice! To the tumbrels with the parasites, citizens, while the Times and the Post knit their stern editorials! GOP "moderates"? What moderates? The few "moderates" who are trotted forth on TV to be shown to the mob, like condemned Chinese dissidents with signs hanging around their necks, seem barely sentient. DECLARATION DISCLAIMER ==
[CTRL] A Kinder, Gentler Lynch Mob - Part II
-Caveat Lector- A KINDER, GENTLER LYNCH MOB | PAGE 1, 2 - - - - - - - - - - The façade of "judiciousness" and "bipartisanship" that the pious media, ever cowed by the musty aura of Historic Constitutional Events, dark-wooded chambers, invocations of "our national honor" and other useful fig leafs for skullduggery, tried to sell us has vanished without a trace. Hyde, the Iran- contra apologist and wisecracking GOP attack dog who was elevated to Solomon- like heights of wisdom by the media before the disgraceful House Judicial proceedings began, has now taken up final residence in the trash can with unsavory American byproducts like our anal home-grown Robespierre, Kenneth Starr, and the maniacal Bob Barr, who apparently believes that Clinton should have been impeached at birth. There was Hyde this weekend on the talk shows, saying that Clinton should resign. This paragon of impartiality apparently modeled his jurisprudential approach on the Red Queen in "Alice in Wonderland," who, as a witness departs in the trial of the Knave of Hearts, says under her voice, "And just take off his head outside." But, gosh, he sure sounds courtly talking that parliamentary talk. In fact, Hyde may have been taking those groveling Times setup pieces a little too seriously, for this weekend he began to invoke no less a figure than Jesus Christ. Asked by Cokie Roberts why he advocated impeachment and didn't think censure should be an option despite popular opinion, he replied, "If Jesus Christ had taken a poll, he would never have preached the gospel." This is a wonderful addition to the great American tradition of reactionary invocations of Jesus, who after patriotism represents the best refuge for scoundrels. (The all-time winner remains that English-only advocate who declaimed, "If English was good enough for Jesus, it's good enough for me.") With all due respect to the pious motivations behind Chairman Hyde's religious parallel, however, it may not be a good strategy for him to go there. Somehow, when one looks at the faces of Clinton's judges -- the pig-eyed ex-exterminator Tom DeLay; the robotic, hate-filled Barr; the snidely, vitriolic David Schippers; the priggish choirboy-judge Bill McCollum -- the loving face of the Savior does not exactly rush into one's mind. In fact, these worthies recall somewhat less inspiring figures from the New Testament -- namely the Pharisees, those vengeful, legalistic Jews who denounced Jesus. (The "moderates," who will doubtless be washing their hands avidly in the days to come, conjure up that noted Northeastern GOP fence-sitter, Pontius Pilate.) Admittedly, the mushy- souled escape artist President Clinton makes a truly terrible Jesus, but the imagery still isn't good. The Republicans are zealots, but they're crafty zealots. Their attempt to take Clinton down may blow up in their faces, but they have reasons for thinking it won't. They think they can get away with this without being punished at the polls, even if they don't kill Clinton. But they cherish a secret hope that they will kill him -- that once impeachment is a fait accompli, with all the previously mentioned flag-waving, invocation of the Founders, gravity of the charges blah blah blah, public opinion will turn against Clinton, leading either to his resignation or to his conviction and removal by the Senate. And that hope is based on their belief that Clinton's support is inch-deep -- that once the American people realize he's in trouble, they'll desert him like rats abandoning a sinking ship. It's the self-fulfilling prophecy strategy, and it is astonishingly contemptuous. It presumes that the American people have no memory, no spiritual or moral consistency, that they are incapable of holding onto any position any longer than a jittery kid with a remote can watch one TV program. The GOP believes this for several reasons. First, they too are children of our Warholian society of the spectacle, in which everything that flickers across the screen has equal weight and nothing stays on the screen for more than a few seconds. As such, they too have been seduced by the belief that, in Marx's words, "all that is solid melts into air." Yesterday's Clinton supporter is today's impeachment supporter. The scary thing is, they just might be right. There have been very few tests of our national consistency in the channel-changing age. The public might be influenced by the media, which has begun running this-is-a-whole-new-ballgame- now stories. The Times, much of whose Clinton coverage continues to appall, splashed on its cover a thin reaction story (ominous headline: "Gravity of the issues sinking in for a public weary of scandal") that featured two or three people in that multicultural mirror of America, Tarrytown, N.Y., saying they were now leaning toward impeachment. (How odd, considering nothing in this story has changed in months except the vote to impeach.) But it would be bitterly ironic (although perfectly consistent,
Re: [CTRL] The Holocaust
-Caveat Lector- In a message dated 12/15/98 10:55:53 PM Eastern Standard Time, [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: "Holocaust" literature also suggests that Christianity is inherently "anti-Semitic" and that the Catholic Church collaborated in the "Holocaust". Both of these statements are true and easily verifiable. Christianity has a long history of anti-Semitism. I believe that Christianity has now essentially shucked that evil, the exception in the US being the racism of the identity movement (there are, of course, parallel groups in Europe). The southern Klansmen and white Aryan groups have heavily infiltrated the militia groups. The militia groups was already imbedded with the identity movement. The southern racists found it was easy to add another brand of hate to these deeply suspicious men who had already been forced off farms and out of heavy industry as the economy began to seriously go global in the 1980s. The Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) who had been tracking the movements of the most prominent racists were the first to detect this movement of leaders from the Klan and white citizen counsels to the militias. They have now set up a militia tracking unit. They report on both the traditional Klan type activity and the racist activity among the militia in their Intelligence Report, a quarterly. Of course racism is having a bit of a resurgence in Europe due to East European "wetbacks" swarming into West Europe. The Westerners resent the job competition much as the folks in California resented the "Okies" et al during the 1930s The Catholic Church did not collaborate in the Holocaust.

Apart from that place in Virginia (?) does anyone know where our underground facilities are? (Not talking about subways.) Are any of them designed to be "open to the public"? Or are we all expendable? No, i don't. My recollection is that by the 1970s, most people were mocking what feeble federal efforts had been made to carry on in case of a US/USSR nuclear war. For me, the most ludicrous was not even the "duck and cover" nonsense, but rather the Postal Service plan to continue delivering the mail. God forbid we should miss an issue of Readers Digest! Few believed in the efficacy of the few shelters that had been built or conversions of basements in governmental buildings completed. The government folks apparently agreed and the shelter notion was quietly abandoned except for the few DC elite. While i agree that we are unprepared for nuclear weapons hitting our cities, it is not probable that anything practical can be done. Those backward shelters of the 1950s would have been money wasted if an attack would have occurred. There was a controversial British animation film on this that was shown on PBS. There was also an American film with the woman who headed up the NEA for a time playing a major acting role. Made you wonder if survival was necessarily the best thing.
