William Rivers Pitt, in a Freepmail to me, accused me of making him up.
I will be out of the office until March 22, 2003.
Your mail will be read and answered when I return.
Best,

The moron hasn't turned off his away message in a week. Losers.
What is most disturbing is that these mandarins continue to teach given that they are neither knowledgeable nor interested in learning objective facts about the world and are more concerned about pandering their shortsighted intellectual lameness to all sorts of disturbed individuals.
There is a pathology here folks...it's not just about right VS left politics. Unfortunately, many universities have succumbed to the Left wing of academia abrogating their responsibilites to the leftist unionists controlling many universities and publishers today. The ghosts of the Soviet Communists have not given up...
Damn right.
Great letter, Doug. It is sickening to think that families of servicemen and women are having their fears added to by traitors like Degenova. Thanks so much for all you do.

Maybe you should contact him and see if he stands by what De Genova said.....could be VERY interesting!!!!!
Professor DeGenova --
I would like to introduce you to my son-in-law, a reservist in the Navy who was activated a week after 9/11.
He is currently on active duty with the Marine Corps somewhere in Iraq. My daughter (his wife) is at home taking care of three children by herself, the youngest of which is a one-month-old baby girl. I've forwarded her your remarks, and I'm sending her the text of this email, along with the sure and certain knowledge that you want her husband dead, and her children to be orphans.
I'm not interested in your free speech, professor. You've gone way over the line in abusing the privilege men like my son-in-law have died to protect. But, your speech is protected, sad to say. No one is coming to silence you. You need fear no knock at your door in the dead of night.
But I hope and pray circumstances work to put you in a country where remarks such as yours against the ruling governmental authority land you at the end of a rope.
Of course it won't happen. You are far too much the self-absorbed narcissist to venture out of your velvet-lined, ivory tower of pure intellectual theory to dirty your hands among the great unwashed masses of the real world. But I just thought I'd call you what you are:
A cringing sneak,
a bold-faced liar,
and a gutless coward.
If the academic community had any integrity, your next career would be pushing a broom in the men's room of Grand Central Station. But it doesn't. All the same an accounting will come. Maybe not in this world, but it will come. And then you get to try to make a case in front of the only judge you won't be able to sidestep.
Here's hoping that day of reckoning will come soon. Especially for the likes of you.
With contempt.
