James, if you are going back that many weeks to pick a fight, you ought to at least follow the thread of the logic and the discussion. I'd take exception with your characterization that those people (excluding maybe Mao) were actually "communists" or even "Marxists". They were absolutists, but not philosophically communist. That is the difference between the "BIG C" and "little C" versions.

BTW, I'm not a commie, or even a hard-core Democrat!!! I'm a centrist with a social conscience.

<<By your logic, would it be acceptable to you if I labeled you a commie?>>

Eh??!! That doesn't follow. Commies do the same kind of thing. It is the E in RWE or LWE that I object to.
