Wow.

yeah, that's crazy, things like that have never happened....

"...in the spring of 1972, at Tulane University...students asked Alinsky to help plan a protest of a scheduled speech by George H. W. Bush, then U.S. representative to the United Nations - a speech likely to include a defense of the Nixon administration's Vietnam War policies. The students told Alinsky they were thinking about picketing or disrupting Bush's address. That's the wrong approach, he rejoined, not very creative - and besides causing a disruption might get them thrown out of school. He told them, instead, to go to hear the speech dressed as members of the Ku Klux Klan, and whenever Bush said something in defense of the Vietnam War, they should cheer and wave placards reading, ‘The KKK supports Bush.' And that is what they did, with very successful, attention-getting results."


Planting major falsehoods has been a favorite Alinsky strategy from the start. His acolyte, Barack Obama, learned his Industrial Areas Foundation lessons on deceiving for power while on a side trip during his Harvard years, then taught the Alinsky power tactics at the University of Chicago.

I guess my stuff is stronger than I thought. I assumed it was obvious that, with a scenario which hasn't happened, I was demonstrating absurdity with absurdity. Certainly, infiltrating to deceive is a tactic, as Scott points out, that has been used. Sarcasm, irony, do need some illusion of credibility. I didn't think anyone would take it seriously. It was, after all, a response to Spence's remark--"Pretty soon you're going to see the fringe Right blaming Islam for all our ills. I can see it forming as we speak." That you didn't see paranoia in that statement is curious.

Since Spence is doling out book advice I thought I would too. I posted this last year. It is an unbelievable read. After you click the link, scroll down for a brief description.

That looks interesting, I was hoping they'd just happen to have it at the airport (as I was in between books) but no luck.

There was a book about liberals and Islam and how they were both going to destroy us, but I just couldn't get over the Malkin review on the back.

Instead I picked up a copy of Thomas Sowell's "Intellectuals and Society." It's certainly not light reading (nor is the book light, I had to have the First Class flight attendant hold my copy to keep my hands free for the drinks) but is quite good so far.

Thanks for the response Butch, this will give me something to read on the BBery waiting for the next flight.
