As usual, New Proletariat Radio (NPR) is neglecting to mention the other morons that are injecting their favorite slants/agendas on the events. I offer the following links for your perusal. The first one is to an editorial from Charles Krauthammer appearing this weekend in selected newspapers around the country. In it he discusses the stupidity exhibited by Falwell and Robertson but he also takes the left to task for their idiotic comments also. He does show a bit of ignorance about Neville Chamberlain, but apart from that the editorial is interesting. http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A1138-2001Sep20.html I also offer the following link from the Boston Globe, where the editorial says we brought the terror on ourselves because we drive SUVs. http://www.boston.com/dailyglobe2/262/oped/Sticky_questions_for_the_elit e+.shtml Lastly, I also want to share with you this final link which describes the only representative who voted against authorizing President Bush to use force against the terrorists, Barbara Lee, is described. This would be of special interest to the voters in San Francisco/Oakland. http://www.washtimes.com/commentary/20010918-14983260.htm And by the way I do agree that Jerry Falwell and Pat Robertson have blown whatever little bit of credibility they had left.

That flight crashed in an unpopulated field outside Pittsburgh instead of another national monument. ÿ Mr. Bingham was 31. He played on a local gay rugby team and hoped to compete in next year's gay games in Sydney, Australia. ÿ I don't know if Mark Bingham was religious, but it seems to me that he lived a life that celebrated the preciousness of the world's infinite variety. ÿ Not so the Revs. Robertson and Falwell and the mullahs of the Talaban, who seem to see a God who frowns at tolerance and smiles with approval on murder and destruction. ÿ Let me put it in the bold terms in which many Americans may be thinking right now. If your plane was hijacked, who would you rather sit next to? ÿ Righteous Reverends who sit back and say, "This is God's judgment for gay Teletubbies"? ÿ Or the gay rugby player who lays down his life to save others? ÿ And, by the way, which person seems closer to God? ÿ --- Scott Simon ÿÿÿÿ Weekend All Things Considered ÿÿÿÿ National Public Radio ÿÿÿÿ September 22, 2001 ÿ ÿ ===================END FORWARDED MESSAGE=================== * To join/leave the list, search archives, change list settings, * * etc., please visit http://raven.utc.edu/archives/hp3000-l.html * * To join/leave the list, search archives, change list settings, * * etc., please visit http://raven.utc.edu/archives/hp3000-l.html *
