Stox, OT Who called you Stalinist left. Please let me see that post. I suspect you are too young to be a Stalinist. <g> If you are referring to my mentioning this phrase to Jerome and Cary, it is because the three of us are old farts and the term has meaning to us in historical terms. The Stalinist left were folks around the world, many good but misguided people included, who could not accept the fact that the socialist experiment had gone so awry and that Uncle Joe was such a bad dude. They were in total denial up to the point when stalin was exposed to the world as a mass murderer by Krushchev. Not that any of this came as a surprise to the rest of us across the broad spectrum of american politics including mainstream socialists. I used the term in relation to the knee jerk bush bashing that goes on routinely in this forum and others. The jury is out on this guy and these threaders would have him impeached, imprisoned, and worse without a trial. Hell they wouldn't even mirandize him. Mike PS Too bad the insurgent democrats stole the election from Janet Reno with those new computer ballot machine. No Chads.
