It was, I guess I just don’t get the connection to the editorial. Perhaps the author is suggesting all the “Czars”, I call them commisars, should be dealt with like van Jones, but if that’s the case, it’s a tad too close to dealing with them like Nicholas II. Thinking about it, I suppose that’s the connection the author was making, down with the Czar(s).

Oh, both know it well enough. They just lack the honor to acknowledge it.

(But I expect you knew that)

So, that’s what his Czar-bureau looks like. LOL. There’s a picture in there of storming the winter palace, too.

My goodness. the resemblance between BHO and Lord Voldemort in that picture is striking. Just remove the nose, give him cat eyes, and a little of this, a little of that. Photo shopping, anyone?

It was a very good article up until the last paragraph. I resent the implications of his call for a new “Yehaterinburg” - which was a wholesale murder of the Tsar family (including children) by Bolsheviks, without trial, under the cover of night. His article was good enough (actually quite good) up until there and was not improved by this. It cheapens our cause, and gives the opposing side an opportunity to concentrate on otherwise irrelevant stupid comment.

Agreed. The anti-Czarist theme of the month can exploit plenty of colorful Russian Revolution images without associating with the venal, murderous side of it. All anyone needs to do is expose the czars for the loony lefties that they are, and thereby get them to resign amid a storm of jeers and cat calls.

Would have snipped it there, but. tooo late now!! ;-)

excellent points were brought up, though.

I think he was more or less tongue in cheek in that final part.

I completely agree with you. I have always wondered who the brain was behind the first usage of a title 'Czar' for a presidential appointment. There is nothing Bolshevik about me and it is an insult to my way of thinking to ever consider myself a party to what the Bolsheviks of the 19th and 20th centuries carried out. And BamaKennedy's 'czars' have the mindset of the Bolsheviks proudly carrying that title 'czar'. As far as I am concerned the French Revolution was the seed bed wherein Bolsheviks plantings were brought forth into the modern era.

“For hard-core greens, the real issue is the same as it is for their socialist kindred spirits: control.”

Van Jones Helped expose Green HOAX! no stimulus $$ should go to green jobs, no cap and trade, no control.

The Yekaterinburg connection puzzles me a bit.

Yekaterinburg
Soon after the Russian Revolution, on July 17, 1918, Tsar Nicholas II, his wife, Alexandra, and their children Grand Duchesses Olga, Tatiana, Maria, Anastasia, and Tsarevich Alexei were executed by Bolsheviks at the Ipatiev House in this city.

I know the background, but I can’t imagine the author was suggesting the “Czars” need to be killed. At least I hope not, though I’m at a loss for other explanations. I was hoping there was some other aspect to the town’s history.

I wondered about the Yekaterinburg reference too, but in the absence of any other explanation, I condemn it.
