Pim Fortuyn ping

Thanks. Interesting articles.

"Chantage" in English is "blackmail" or "extortion," a la Jesse Jackson. "Nerts" are minks.

So the killer's lawyer is a former activist for the Rote Armee Fraktion in Germany. Interesting! I was stationed in Berlin with the U.S. Air Force back in 1970-72, when the Baader-Meinhof gang was laying bombs on American bases.

The Yahoo story several times emphasizes Pim's "far right" connection but downplays the enviror-terrorist ties of the murderer. And this Helder nut (mail box bombs) is "anti-government" (read "conservative") but he is a whacko with hallucinations about the earth, the "masses" and nothing identifiably linked with conservatism. Getting tired of the subtle and not so subtle Barbara Striesand.

I surely grow tired of the unrelenting slurs & slanders that the press flings at us on the right. One of my neighbors is a black guy who builds houses, and he's a good neighbor. Another neighbor is, ahem! a gal who preferrs other women... she's a nice neighbor as well. The family I have a small problem with is white ( like me ) but they like to get liquored up and fight with each other. Yet people who nothing more about me than the side of the aisle I'm on politically usually assume I'm a homophobic bigot of some sort...

I'm going to assume that Holland will self-correct the problems she's having, as that is the way most representative governments operate- given a little good luck.
