Hi Peter,
Assassination Porn is defined as "excessive, heated discussions between CTs and LNers." Titallating, but with no redeeming social value.
I confess to have produced more than my share of AP in my day...but now that I'm over here those days are over!:iluvu:
Hi Cliff,
I'm glad you're here. Long ago, you and I thought of ourselves as allies at EF.
That being noted, a caveat seems in order: Accessories after the fact (in my Constitutionally protected, deeply informed opinion) to regicide the likes of Von Pein and Lamson are not welcome here. Nor are one-sided debates with them.
In other words, please vent your spleen elsewhere.
All they're looking for is engagement -- and with it, the continuation of a cover-up designed not to win an argument, but rather to prolong it.
No one at DPF will be permitted to aid and abet the bastards.
As for your quarrel with Jim DiEugenio: You are attempting to transplant it from the EF to DPF, and we will have none of it here.
Repeat: None of it.
If you wish to challenge Jim on any salient points, then by all means do so.
Jim, I encourage you to engage Cliff in a similar fashion.
And before anyone points out that, given past public indiscretions on my part, I am now playing the role of The Pot to others' portrayals of The Kettle ... Well, no one knows sin as intimately as a sinner knows it.
I'm making my best effort to restore intellectual discipline and perhaps even a touch of class to my contributions here. I shall expect nothing less from DPF correspondents.
Thanks.

If an individual, through either his own volition or events over which he had no control, found himself taking up residence in a country undefined by flags or physical borders, he could be assured of one immediate and abiding consequence: He was on his own, and solitude and loneliness would probably be his companions unto the grave.

You can't blame the innocent, they are always guiltless. All you can do is control them or eliminate them. Innocence is a kind of insanity.
