It feels like a bad dream...I am on the Free Republic website, aren't I?
**I find it strange that you are attacked for posting a negative article about a man who definitely had socialist leanings.

I don't find it that strange, unfortunately. Gandhi is one of those people whom even conservatives have been systematically trained by the media and the government-run education system to uphold as an example of goodness and purity. Nevermind that he did have his racist moments (and not just when he was a young man) and was a socialist. To his credit, however, he disassociated himself from the hard-core Nazi-supporter types like Bose and vocally opposed them.
