A zillion thanks to you for re-posting some of my posts. I also like to say, "Yes, I wrote them. So what!" In case you didn't know, I am very proud of what I had written. They contain logical and factual stuff! Though some (only just a few) folks like you disagreed with me, they never succeeded in refuting my statements. If anything, my posts reflect the fact I have a better education than most folks, that I am generally well-informed, and that I do not mince words. By contrast, the reaction by folks like you betrayed your lack of a sense of humour, your parochial outlook and general ignorance and, if I may say so, your envy and jealousy. Tsk! Tsk! Tsk! Thanks again for re-posting some of my past posts even though you have posted them several times before. (On several occasions you tried to foment and rally condemnation against me. But you failed miserably! Doesn't that tell you something?) Your re-posting efforts have done me proud of my posts and that relaxes me immeasurably. However, I am a wee bit disappointed in that you were selective. Why not present all my posts so that readers (in case they are so inclined) might glean from them the true nature of Richnorth? Tell me honestly, what have you achieved from it all? For your dedication and zeal, you should have been presented with a medal of honour and installed as the official archivist by now, eh? Why haven't the powers that be done so? Why haven't they expelled me from SI if my past posts were indeed as outrageous and repugnant as folks like you would like to have others believe them to be? The simple truth is that the complaints had no merit. If anything, they betrayed the complainants' inane and insane obsession. I am sorry as I am not a shrink, I cannot help you.................

As your one-man crusade is in danger of running out of gas, you will do well to see if you can find another way to show what a baddie I am. By the way, here is some food for thought and then some...... ================================= Gary H wrote: It's not America's people but the Bushies. Besides trying to screwing the rest of the world, they ARE screwing the American public. The bushies are turning the world against the US and anyone who thinks that being the bully on the block is a place of prestige is in for a rude awakening. You could show some real bravado and read Chomsky's book, or you could buy the bs and follow the rest of the sheep. Message 19782063 =========================================================== Santiago wrote: First of all, with a name like that (Chomsky) I would want to know a lot about his idealism. Many Americans thought Communism was the way to go during the Depression. It sounded good then but the reality was control and subjugation of millions by a few. James Message 19782443 =========================================================== Gary H replied: Good God man, did you just hear what you said? You placing judgement on man by his name? With a name like Santiago shall we think of you as sheep-herder from the hills of south America? Step outside, take a deep breath and give yourself a big shake. Chomsky is an MIT Professor and some the best critics in the US press have stated their views on the mans work posted by Richnorth at Message 19781539 and Message 19781640 If you haven't read those then it must be that your fears are to face the truth. If you have, your blinder are fully in place. Probably the later since your statement " It sounded good then but the reality was control and subjugation of millions by a few." is a perfect description of what the bushies are doing. =========================================================== Dale Sinor replied: ...........So why don't you say some good things about our country, about the things we stand for and believe in, instead of defending dictators who murder thousands or millions. You might gain some credibility that way. If this is such an evil empire why does the US accept more than twice the number of immigrants as the rest of the world combined? Why are millions trying to get in? siliconinvestor.com ======================================================= Gary H replied: Part of the review from, Robert D. Steele, an Amazon Book Reviewer, says >He (Bush) is especially strong on documenting the manner in which US aid grows in direct relation to the degree to which the recipient country is guilty of genocidal atrocities, with Colombia and Turkey being prime examples. The case can be made, and Chomsky makes it, that the US arms industry, and US policies on the selling and granting of arms world-wide, are in fact a direct US commitment to repression, genocide, and terrorism sponsored by one big state: the US. He is most interesting when he discusses the new US approach to repression, the privatization of actions against the underclasses of the world.< You said >If this is such an evil empire why does the US accept more than twice the number of immigrants as the rest of the world combined? Cheap labor to supply greater profits for the elite while your jobs will disappear. Message 19782689 Hey Lorne, Maybe Gary is a Moslem? Not? You tell me. After all, it was not Richnorth only that has voiced anti-US sentiments. Gary has done the same thing. Why didn't you try to show him up for all to see? Have you forgotten the time when you were laughed off a thread when you tried to tell other posters about the evils of "political correctness". You were against it because it enabled many a potential enemy to go scot-free.
