Subject:       Re: A Modest Proposal


The post below proves my point that the 'maoists' are idealists pure and 
simple.

Their HOLY TENETS are being profaned by the untouchables. We are not 
worthy of the acolytes of the saints. Saint Adolfo is on his holy 
mission to rid the infidels from using jehovahs NAME. The uninitiated 
shall not use HIS name in vain.

This is what it is all about. It is pathetic. It is so idealistic I 
can't believe it. This is why A.O. (Acolytes Only) writes such 
nonsense

It is the name that is important to him. That's all. Until this holy 
war is successful, he will keep posting and posting and posting. If 
we ignore him, he will not go away. But if we ignore him, we don't 
read him.

We could call the list the Frank Sinatra list -- and continue our 
debates and discussion on marxism, and Saint Adolfo wouldn't give a 
toss, he would think he had 'won'. If these are the victories they 
are after, they ain't gonna win anything.

We can breath a sigh of relief now and just get on with the list. I 
will post only on mad cow disease, class consciousness and class 
composition, the SLP, et cetera from now on.

Carrol is completely correct on it.

Can someone please teach me how to introduce an automatic delete in 
my e-mail thingy.

PS: Did you hear about the two cows in the field?
One says to the other, "are you worried about this mad cow disease?" 
The othe cow says "Why should I worry? I'm a sheep"

Boom Fucken Boom
