Just because Hoover wore a dress is no reason to impune the FBI.

??? Dare I? No, it's too easy! Aw, what the hell. Hoover was a fruitcake. For decades he denied the existence of organized crime. As far as I can tell he was the only person in the whole world who said this.

No, just because Hoover was Hoover was a good reason to impune the FBI.

Now, about the guy who murdered Fortuyn. Yes, he is an eco whacko. Go read the news reports. That's how I found out Fortuyn was not a right wing extremist, or a left winger, either.

Well, the mantra chanted by certain ecologically concerned, which I have heard, not in a traffic jam, but in my own dining room, that they wish 90% of humans would die in a plague is indeed not a crime. I never said it was. I said it was evidence of ethical or moral blindness brought on by substitution of aesthetic impulse for thought..

I was being kind. Many, probably a minority of environmentalists, are simply self indulgent folk who substitute environmentalism for self examination just as many, not all, religious types substitute religion for self examination.
