Steam came out my ears this AM as I read this kissy-face profile of the little spoiled commie brat grand daughter of those stinking spies, the Rosenbergs. The NY Times will NEVER let this story rest--although they say that it is "widely accepted" that those b*stards spied for the USSR and gave them atomic secrets, there are always softening sentencs. Here, "[atomic secrets], most of which the Russians had obtained from other sources."

A pox on you, you filthy, disgusting, NY Times. Are you saying that what the Rosenberg's did was OK? Then, [Sam Kinison voice] SAY IT! SAY IT ALREADY! And Mr. Sam Roberts, fancy guy reporter for the NY Times, why don't you ask this disgusting little commie about the millions of people that her soviet friends exterminated under Stalin? Still covering for Mr. Duranty, Mr. Roberts?

And dontcha just love how she "never thinks about" the issues surrounding the guilt of her grandparents?

And finally, as an American with Jewish blood in me, I can only be so ashamed of these people with whom I share tribal origins with who can only attack the greatest country that ever was, AND, the country that has been THE BEST to the Jews in history! Sorry for the rant, freepers, but this piece was hard for me to take this AM and I figured you would understand.

[BenLurkin]

SO according to her CRIME is not the problem . . . the "system" is.


Sheesh!

[nonliberal]

Suppose Soviet archives conclusively revealed that her grandfather was a spy?

They had Venona codenames. That makes them guilty.

[ClearCase_guy]

"I don't know what they did, but I know they couldn't get a fair trial, that the death penalty was wrong, and that they weren't guilty of what they were convicted of."

Lying Stalinist Stooge.

[rlmorel]

The NY Times as an organization, every employee there, and every relative thinks the Rosenbergs were innocent.

History has proven them guilty.

[Gay State Conservative]

Suppose Soviet archives conclusively revealed that her grandfather was a spy? "It's not something I've spent much time thinking about," she replied.

If this red diaper baby Marxist had had time to think of her reply,it would have been "false documents could easily have been planted in the files of The Glorious Motherland!"

[Tijeras_Slim]

The only good thing about the NYT's fixation with the Rosenbergs is that it keeps them from re-hashing Sacco and Vanzetti. :)

[rlmorel]

...A profile of Rachel Meeropol, the lead lawyer for a group of Muslim immigrants suing the United States government...

Well, that just fits perfectly, does it not?

[TSchmereL]

"A pox on you, you filthy, disgusting, NY Times."

In the words of Steve Martin, "Die you gravy sucking pigs."

[Pharmboy]

Mark--I did not want you to miss this one.

[Doctor Raoul]

Hey Rachel, one of the codenames the Soviets assigned your traitor daddy was "LIBERAL"!!!

[TSchmereL]

True to her roots, Rachel is a Vice President of the New York City chapter of the Communist National Lawyers Guild.

The NLG was founded in 1936 by Communist Party USA (CPUSA) lawyers and liberal fellow-travelers. A watershed moment for the organization occurred in its third year, when its National Executive Board chose not to adopt an amendment to the NLG Constitution condemning dictatorship and supporting democracy - an amendment its Communist organizers called "divisive." It formally defines its mission as an effort "to unite the lawyers, law students, legal workers, and jail-house lawyers of America [to] function as an effective political and social force in the service of the people, to the end that human rights shall be regarded as more sacred than property interests."

If what Ms. Meeropol ALLEGES IN HER COMPLAINT is true, she has probably been communicating with Al Qaeda members.

Rachel's sponsor, the hilariously styled Center for Constitutional Rights, was started by Castro-supporting Communists (including William Kunstler). Today they pride themselves on their whole-hearted support for terrorists and terrorist enablers like Lynne Stewart.

In 1997, a documentary filmmaker interviewed the grandchildren of Julius and Ethel Rosenberg. Their granddaughter, Rachel Meeropol, the "plaintiff" in this trumped-up New York lawsuit, told the interviewer that being a granddaughter of the Rosenbergs was more of a boon than a burden. She said she was proud of her heritage and it placed her within an international community of support.

[Doctor Raoul]

More than 50 years later, it is widely accepted that in the 1940's Julius Rosenberg was, in fact, a Soviet spy.

The liberal bastards at the NYT choke on the fact that they were proven spies. That why the quote above has to many twists and turns with so few words.

[purpleland]

Both Ed Asner and Harry Belafonte are board members of quasi communist front Rosenberg/Meeropol foundations and their anti-death penalty orgs. Wealthy communists! Check out their sources for funding and contributions. This bespeaks of a very exclusively nepotic and self-sustaining generational communism support system. Probably nonprofit, tax exempt communist "altruistic" entities. (!!!) Seems reasonable that treasonous communists, spies and subversives would want to be protected from the Death Penalty mandates. David Horowitz wrote the defining history of the Rosenberg case: THEY WERE GUILTY.
Remember, "lie and deny" is the communist axiom.

[TSchmereL]

I don't own much, but the fact that commies would deny me even the right to own my own home is enough for me to hate them.

[scouse]

"Rachel's interest in prisoners' rights work stems from her family's firsthand experience with the destructive impact of the criminal 'justice'
Within the last few years, her brother, David Greenglass, also charged in the conspiracy, acknowledged that he had lied when he delivered the most incriminating evidence against her.

Seems that trial was more of a breakdown in the family rather than in the Justice system.

[fallujah-nuker]

When he was 6, the boy's birth parents, Julius and Ethel Rosenberg, were executed at Sing Sing on June 19, 1953, for conspiracy to commit espionage for the Soviet Union.

1953 was just a year of tragedy for the left.

[Ronaldus Magnus]

Imagine what Korea would have looked like in 1950 had the Soviets not been able to detonate their first atomic weapon in 1949 (something made possible by by the Rosenberg's treason in 1945). The Korean Conflict could have ended in a negotiated settlement before it had even begun.

The only regret we should have regarding the Rosenbergs is that Sing Sing Prison's electric chair could only electrocute them once.

[Fudd Fan]

as an American with Jewish blood in me, I can only be so ashamed of these people with whom I share tribal origins

These people are communists, and I don't you have anything in common with them. Be proud of that!

[blam]

BTW, one of the best books ever written is Witness by Whittaker Chambers.

[Alouette]

What a tragedy that Michael and Robert Rosenberg were handed over to their parents' CPUSA chums, Anne and Abel Meeropol, instead of a stringently closed adoption to a loving, religious Orthodox Jewish family.
