[Yugo] Lets be clear about this. What was stated to you by LG was the following.

[LG] I don't doubt the substance of the story, but I have a problem with the author cited. Isn't Lerone Bennett a notorious black separatist and revisionist?

[Yugo] Now it seems to me that an assertion is being made about the author you cited. While phrased as a question, it is an assertion nonetheless.

[nc] Whatever you say, dear. I promise to add this to my Wlatian translation table. A question is an assertion. Thanks for sharing.

[Wlatian translation table: Conservatives are really Socialists. Republicans are really Progressives. Republicans are not really Conservatives. Liberals are really Conservatives. Conservatives are Classical Liberals. A monarch isn't always a monarch. Protectionism isn't protectionism ... sometimes. Capitalism is government economic intervention. A question is an assertion.]
[LINK-1] [LINK-2]

[Yugo] Furthermore, the assertion has two parts. Part A is the assertion that Lerone Bennett Jr. is a notorious black seperatist, part B is that author Lerone Bennett Jr. is a revisionist.

[nc] If you say so, dear.

[Yugo] My response to this assertion was affirmative [short answer, yes], and I go on to cite an earlier work where Lerone Bennett credits the founding fathers as having invented racism.

[nc] Your false assertion was answered, slam-dunked, cut up into 4-inch squares, and deposited in the little reading room dear. Your 1958 was stuffed by my 1960. Your pathetic attempt to debate with your intellectual superior continued through [1963] [1969]

You remember my 1969, I'm sure:

What you said was, that Bennett is a notorious black separatist.

Show me where Bennett has ever used the term "Black Separatist."

Show me where Bennett has ever said he was a "Black Separatist."

Provide a quote or link for any reputable source which alleges Bennett is, or ever has been, a "notorious Black separatist."

YOU are the one who said that the short answer is that Bennett is a "notorious black separatist." If he is not just a black separatist, but a notorious black separatist, a source should be easy to find.

[Yugo] There can be no disagreement about whether Lerone Bennett Jr. is a black liberation theorist.

[nc] If you say there can be no disagreement, I will take your word for it dear, and not try to disagree.

[Yugo] Even you aren't stupid enough to attempt to disclaim that assertion.

[nc] Whatever you say, dear.

[Yugo] Whats left then is to determine whether Bennett is a black liberation theorist of one stripe [integration] or another [separation].

[nc] He may have tiger stripes and move into the house next to yours and then he will boil you in a large pot and eat you and your babies.

[Yugo] Whether Lerone Bennett Jr. is or isn't a separationist could be a subject for lengthy discussion since virtually all Black Liberation theorists pay homage to Malcolm X and the Nation of Islam.

[nc] You logic is second to none.

[Yugo] What isn't debatable, and what you have gone to great lengths NOT to discuss is part B of LG's orginal assertion.

[nc] If you say it is not debatable, I will take your word for it dear, and not try to debate it.

[Yugo] The simple fact that Lerone Bennett Jr. IS a revisionist historian.

[nc] Whatever you say, dear. [Dear... that was only a fragment and not a whole sentence.]

[Yugo] This is the relavant [SIC] portion because it was a historical citation of Bennett's that you quoted in 1823 and a historical quotation from an earlier revisionist work of his that I referenced in 1958.

[nc] Your logic remains second to none.

[Yugo] Now, either you are the dumbest stump

[nc] That would leave you being outwitted by a tree stump.

[Yugo] in the neo-confederate woodpile,

[nc] I dunno, I'm a Yankee.

[Yugo] or a carefully camoflauged [SIC] black liberation theorist.

[nc] I guess you haven't found that pic of me camouflaged on a corner freeping the hitlery book tour. Hey, you should see the thread Entering the belly of The BEAST. My day with Hillary. Really, it's fun. Freeper Hillary's Lovely Legs gets up to Hillary for the book signing and...

I was in orange and fuschia in the sea of white T shirts and Hillary buttons. Hillary was signing away and I said " Who's on the cover of your book?"

IF LOOKS COULD KILL.

Hillary and I did lazer beam eyeballs of hate to each other.

If only she knew that the one questioning her was actually her nemesis...Hillary's Lovely Legs.

Suddenly a vice-like grip was on my left arm, and I was pulled away from Hillary. They handed me my book, and I was on my way.

My cameraman friend said he got it on tape and hopes he can use it, but he wanted to know what in the world I said to her to make her use her " GET THE HELL OUT OF HERE face".

I told him that I said " I have Vince Foster's murder on tape".

My silly friend, he thought I was serious. I told him what I really said and he laughed. I hope to get a copy of the tape. It will be priceless.

[nc] Are you still mad at me for freeping your liberal heroine Hillary? Is that what this is all about?

[Yugo] Which is it?

[nc] What exactly is a Black liberation theorist? Is that about a woman who burns her black bra?

[nc] What is a Black separatist? Bennett has been an editor at Ebony for about a half-century. Just where to you think he is going? Maybe he's going to the Abraham Lincoln Association to give ***another*** address.
