[lbo-talk] "antidemocratic"

[Michael Dawson]

Well, if the main problems are institutional, then clarifying and talking
about them is a big, collective project.  If it's really just Cheney or
Rumsfeld or D'Amato, then the thinker who cracks through the defenses and
reports the trail to the smoking gun becomes an instant Great Intellectual,
a solo superstar, a guru for the modern world, worthy of their own personal
eponymous website and much, much, much more.

Of course, these clowns can never connect their own dots.  Ruppert is a huge
case in point.  His "proof" is his own accusations, no more.

That should be enlightening. That's not an interview - that's a duet, 
and more in unison than harmony.

The last conversation I had with Dennis Bernstein was being 
interviewed on his program back when D'Amato was the chair of the 
Senate Banking Committee. Bernstein wanted me to say that D'Amato was 
running the world. I kept saying, no, it's a bit more complicated 
than that. Bernstein would have none of it.

What is it with you people? Why is there always an individual or a 
clique running the world? Is reality just too messy for you to get 
handle on it?
