What is harsh but true is what Dick has said about harry lately. Got him



pinned for exactly the loser he is...







---------------------------------------







It's not my goal to pin anybody. That makes me as bad as those I



complain about and I plead guilty occasionally. Sometimes I get tired



of people who make statements that I know to be false that are intended



to disparage people they don't even know.







Many of us have posted things here in the heat of debate exchanges that



we later probably regret. But not Harry. Virtually everything he



posts, he means and it's done for a purpose. He seems to get a perverse



delight in such. I usually try to maintain a civil attitude for the



most part but lately he's been ****ing me off.







Examples:







Somebody here (forget who) recently made a comment about John suggesting



that he may be a recovering alcoholic. Didn't say he *was*. Just



suggested that maybe he was. It was uncalled for and obviously the



poster has absolutely no idea if it is true or not.







Harry liked that of course, picked up on it and within the hour was



commenting on John's alcoholism, as if it was a proven fact.



That's the crap that gets me ****ed off sometimes. Cute but transparent.







Then there's his endless social commentary and comments on the status of



minorities, the poor and the disenfranchised. If others don't see it



his way, they are obviously either racist or "republi-trash". Yet, in



another thread about building permits, etc., Harry went out of his way



to make sure we all are aware that he lives in a very desirable area



with fine restaurants, stringent building codes and future development



statutes that are intended to restrict those who may wish to build and



move in. I think Harry would serve humanity better if he moved to



Detroit and became a community organizer rather that call people names



on a goofy newsgroup.







Harry blames everyone else for the demise of rec.boats as a useful



newsgroup, yet he is by far the biggest contributor to it's decline.



Just ask him. It has been his goal and he delights in yanking your chain.















You do go on, and yet you never try to castigate your good buddy here.



Mildly interesting.







We live in a nice area, but it certainly isn't the locale of the "super



rich." There are only a couple of expensive restaurants around here, the



building codes are ordinary but enforced, but the zoning is stringent to



maintain a semi-rural atmosphere outside of the commercial areas, and



there are no statutes to restrict anyone from moving in. The local



impact fee, as I mentioned, may or may not still be in effect, but



Gregg's area has a much higher one.







I think it is possible Herring is an alcoholic in recovery. If he is,



there's nothing wrong with that. Recovery means you are controlling the



illness, and it isn't controlling you. And I surely think those



Republicans who so obviously hate the poor, minorities and the



disenfranchised are Republic-trash. Absolutely.







Oh, I did live in Birmingham, Michigan, a suburb of Detroit, and I



worked in downtown Detroit. I also worked a full year in Chicago for an



organization run by...Saul Alinsky. When I was hired by the teachers



union, I hired Alinsky to come to a conference of state teacher leaders



in New York to put on presentations on how to use the system, a task at



which Alinsky was unsurpassed.







You mean *this* Saul Alinsky?

The very same. The funny thing is that Saul was far less a radical than

the elected creeps and non-elected creeps who run today's Republican

party. Saul's goal was to empower the powerless. The Republican credo

today is to "unempower" the powerless and concentrate all the wealth in

the pockets of the rich and powerful. Saul, a Russian Jew and a

patriotic socialist, understood and appreciated the teachings of Jesus.

Today's Republican hierarchy is more like the Roman aristocracy.


He was a communist that also supported anarchy, Harry.
