Yesterday I was reading some of Dellinger's anti-war propaganda in the Vietnam Veterans Against the War files.
Quite a glowing obituary considering his past.

I am sure his vote will still be counted.

As an avowed communist, he willfully condoned the execution of more than 50 million people. Good riddance to bad rubbish.

Heaton Woods, the Montpelier retirement home where the activist had been living.

Imagine being in that retirement home with him. Always bitching, trying to form an uprising against the rice pudding, forming activists cells to call C-Span and trying to unionize the Heaton Woods Mall busses. Once a hell-raiser, always a hell-raiser.

Not even that. Abbie Hoffman and Jerry Rubin have already checked out. Tom Hayden is still around, as is Bobby Seale (I think). That accounts for five. Anyone know about the rest?

Oh, yeah, defense attorney William Kunstler went off to play poker with Old Scratch a while ago. AFAIK, Len Weinglass is still alive.

You know, if you think about it, that will probably describe a lot of FReepers in retirement homes. I'm planning on being a real pain in the rear in my golden years. : )

Dellinger's activities extended the war for many years, and added substantially to the pile of bodies. I am thinking at the moment of the half million Vietnamese dead at the bottom of the South China Sea.

Kerry's guilty of that too.

Hey, both of these guys are guilty of leading Pol Pot and his Khmer Rouge to get the idea they could kill 2,000,000 Cambodian people and get away with it.

So, Dellinger, right up there with some of the big time genocide guys at 2,500,000 (minimum estimate), is never going to get off the great mandala. He is doomed to keep coming back in one role or another, usually bad ones, until the heat death of the current universe, and maybe beyond.

Outer Darkness is not a sufficient judgment for creatures such as Dellinger.

Thanks for reminding us. Why doesn't the author know this? Jerry Rubin BTW, I am convinced, was on his way to becoming a Conservative.

Breaks my effing heart that the commie worshipping pos is dead. I hope it was a long and painful death. Will J Kerry be attending the funeral?
