This is to carranza2... Thought you might be interested in this. I copied it from something I posted on another thread but with our discussions thought you might like to see it.To:Wharf Rat who wrote (49542) From: Suma Tuesday, Jun 22, 2004 9:32 AM View Replies (1) \| Respond to of 49550 Dear WR: Oh, this book exposes J.Edgar for what he was... and what is most disturbing is the following: Hoover,Cohen (who died of AIDS ) McCarthy... were all extremely Homophobic..They persecuted gays above a lot of others.AND guess what... They were latent and many of them came out before their deaths... JEDGAR had along standing liaison with Folsom. Everyone knew but everyone was so terrorized by this man and the resource he had to GET STUFF on them... that they could not do a thing. With what went on during the years he was FBI Chief ...with bedroom stuff as you so kindly use the term make Clinton look like an angel. It's all the TIMES we live in. Backlashes against former times.. ANGELS IN AMERICA does a great job on Cohen and his denial of having AIDS.. He threatened everyone who even suspected that he did and when his Doctor told him he had AIDS he aid that is a gay disease and I have cancer. Protesting to the end. McCarthy,Cohen and David Shein..... were the group that made everyone UNAMERICAN.. They killed more careers with their accusations. It was a terrible time. I lived through it.(The UNAMERICAN ACTIVITIES COMMITTEE ) Addendum: Might have some relevance to what fault line sent to you about morals... agendas for Liberals. All the above were not Liberals... If it has any significance it is that those who protest the most sometimes about others... e.g. Clinton... are sitting on something themselves ?????? IMHO

Hi c2, I found this comment particularly interesting: "God is a pretty good actor," Berger said. "God as a referent is something to whom one turns for authority. He's very powerful. What I observe among liberals is that liberals lack a similar source of authority. We liberals don't have a sense of authority to which we can simply refer without evidence." although the "It's God's/Allah's Will" crowd can get a little screwy with their logic sometimes... :o) --fl
