Stephen Schwartz: Apologist for Mass Murder

It's okay to defend Trotsky and his program of mass murder, but just don't defend the Constitution and the foreign policy of the Founders of this country, because you'll be branded an "extremist" and, who knows, maybe even "anti-American." But the "Trotsky-cons," as Schwartz calls his little clique of ex-commie "conservatives," are A-OK with the editors of National Review and the Weekly Standard, where Schwartz appears regularly. So much for the "conservative" movement of today....

check out the original Schwartz piece from NR on "Trotsky-cons":

Obviously you are irked because Schwartz connected you to Randall Royer the other day. I find it interesting that your counter-attack by proxy deals with silly Trotskyite politics rather than Royer. In any case, Horowitz-on-steroids Stephen Schwartz is not a conservative anyway, nor has he ever claimed to be one.

Yawn.

[Justin Raimondo]

I think being regularly published in National Review, and the Weakly (sub)Standard, as well as proclaiming your "conservatism" in an interview with The Atlantic:

http://www.theatlantic.com/unbound/interviews/int2003-03-20.htm Here is what Schwartz and his fellow neocons consider to be "conservatism" (neocon-style):

"If there's anything right now that's painful for me to have to say, because I do consider myself a conservative on issues like private property and privatization, it's that the record of big oil—Standard Oil and its successors—has been so negative in the history of our country for so long that maybe the only solution is to have congressional hearings on the role of big oil in covering for and fronting for the Saudis. Maybe the only solution is to do what people wanted to do in 1907, which is to nationalize big oil."

Yeah, "nationalize 'Big Oil'"! Neocons = Neo-communism.

And as for The Schwartz "connecting" me to Randall Royer: that's true only if you mean by "connecting" putting my name in the same sentence with Royer's. Otherwise, there is no "connection."

"The notoriety stemming from its use by Hitler should not obscure the fact that the Soviet state was the initiator of this institution. [He] had the honor of being first to use the term. In his order of June 4, 1918, he demanded that all Czechoslovaks who refused to lay down their arms be detained in concentration camps.

Actually, the concentration camps were invented by the British during the Boer War. The conflict cost the lives of 5,000 combatants, and 30,000 civilians who died behind British barbed wire of malnutrition and disease. This was a major demographic catastrophe for the Afrikaaner community.

Please -- you picked a quote that made my case for me! Schwartz is no conservative, a few cryptic words about "private property" notwithstanding.

Considering the writer of this piece of fecal matter is a Sodomite, the anti God bias is understandable. I guess nobody except you is allowed to have a change of heart? And of course that Jooooooooo Saul of Tarsus was a bad bad man. he became the Apostle Paul by the way. You wouldn't know the constitution if it came up and smacked you in the face.

[Justin Raimondo]

If I'm a "sodomite," no doubt you have the pictures to prove it, oh "CARepubGal." Or a good lawyer....

[CARepubGal]

Ooooh! I am sooo scared now.

[Justin Raimondo]

Oh, and the writer of this piece is Myles Kantor, who is heterosexual. You idiot.

[CARepubGal]

:yawn: Have fun at Pride. Will you be marching with the leather boys?

[Justin Raimondo]

Hey, was that you on the "Trotsky-cons of Lesbos" float? I really liked the goatee, but I thought the ice-pick stuck in your head was a little much....

[dennisw]

Steven Schwartz has your number... just a Jew obsessed cuckoo clock. That's what really gets your ire. Obviously you have an axe to grind with Trotsky (because he's Jewish) yet you, along with your silly website, bemoan us taking out a world class mass murderer such as Saddam.

[CARepubGal]

Nope. Where in your dope infested swill of a "brain" does trotsky con come from?

Don't be gay Sparky!

Bobby Byrd was in the Invisible Empire?

And as for The Schwartz "connecting" me to Randall Royer: that's true only if you mean by "connecting" putting my name in the same sentence with Royer's. Otherwise, there is no "connection."

Ah, but there is a connection. Royer quoted you in a polemic he addressed to Schwartz. Great minds think alike.

Mr. Hat has a thing for Brett Favre and thousand island dressing, don'tcha know. ; ^ )>
