Ping. And thanks for the article.

I read this article a few days ago... very interesting and highly entertaining. The idiocy of the Left amazes me. Maybe our local Commis are also well-paid actors? Sometimes I think they are just trolling when I listen to their ideological diatribe.

Mr. Wartena wants Dutch intelligence to pay him back for all his donations. Mr. Boevé, now 74, scoffs at his acolyte: "He was an idiot."

Hilarious.

Ping.

"Nothing was real," says the ex-Mr. Petersen, who now lives under his real name, Pieter Boevé, here in Zandvoort, a seaside resort town west of Amsterdam.

What, no address?

"I totally wasted 12 years of my life," says Paul Wartena, an ex-MLPN member who was so dedicated to the cause he used to donate 20% of his salary to the fake party.

ROTFL! "Comrades, I'm proud to be a member of the party and I'm completely devoted to the revolution... But why do I always have to pick up the check? And it would be nice if I could get reimbursed for some gas money. Gas is expensive and it's not cheap chauffeuring all you party members around to the meetings..."

So Valin, what does that make the leaders at Free Republic?

[William of Orange]

makes me think, could Howard Dean and Terry McAuliffe be paid informants?

The Dutch pulled off a successful long term intel op. Maybe our intell services(CIA,DoD,NSA...) could learn something from the Dutch.

The only genuine part of a revolutionary career that lasted decades, he says, was a fondness for Chinese food: The Chinese Communist Party, Mr. Boevé recalls, had excellent cooks

There's a movie in there.

"I totally wasted 12 years of my life," says Paul Wartena, an ex-MLPN member who was so dedicated to the cause he used to donate 20% of his salary to the fake party. He says he "had some doubts now and then" about the MLPN but stayed loyal because "I was very naive and Mr. Boevé was such a good actor." Now a researcher at a university in Utrecht, Mr. Wartena wants Dutch intelligence to pay him back for all his donations. Mr. Boevé, now 74, scoffs at his acolyte: "He was an idiot."

This is great.

He sits on the local council and lobbies for better housing for the elderly. He has even set up yet another party: It represents old people. It doesn't have many members, but, says Mr. Boevé, "This time they are all real."

Should I convert? Perhaps it's also sham too. What exactly does the conversion of Putin and Gorbachev involve?

[Once-Ler]

You were right...I did love it.

[chudogg]

This is exactly like Cointelpro. Of course the media treated that has evidence of the emerging totalatarian state, complete with glorification of FBI headquarters break-ins and democrat congresses gutting our intelligence agencies.

Micheal Moore, our idiot, probably got more votes for Bush, than he did for kerry. Wheeee

Excellent article. Thanks for the post!

Could DU be a modern-day version?
