Free Speech and measured response 10/10/2008 12:32:59 PM
It seems Leslie Rietz wants me kicked off AD. He loves calling Senator Obama the Anti-Christ but can't tolerate a robust response... In response to another of Mr. Leslie Rietz' offensive and racist posts on Senator Obama, I posted the following review:
//
One day, in your future maturity - if you are ever so blessed with balance and dignity - you will be ashamed of who you are now. You are a purveyor of lies, an advocate of war and a damned fool. As for Aubrey - his racism is evident. You rednecks are no longer the future of America and the world - you are a lost tribe of violent fanatics the world would be well rid of.
Incidentally, Leslie has posted this twice - his first post attracted much ridicule and rejection from so many Americans, I guess he had to start again.
A new age approaches in the world, wherein education and eloquence are preferred over the bullet, and Obama is its harbinger. Better get used to the idea of PRESIDENT BARAK OBAMA - PRESIDENT OF THE USA - hope of the civilized world.
//
Now this is a little less than restrained, but hardly more than deserved when Rietz explicitly states that Barak Obama is the anti-christ - repeatedly and in posts accompanied by appalling and offensive synthetically altered images of Senator Obama.
So, in keeping with his belief in freedom of expression for right wing nutters (and no one else), Rietz now attempts to have me excluded from this forum - here's his latest email:
//
Sorry, This one is going to AD...Hope they don't kick you off! Love & Peace Les
//
So if I am actually banned - you know why. May your gods go with you. As for Leslie's 'Love and Peace' - he can stick them where the catholic inquisition stuck its pokers into the anatomical points of entry of unfortunate heretics.

PS: In response to another of Rietz' posts stating that Obama should be arrested, I did remind him that this was the method of Nazis - Again intemperate - but that's the artistic soul for you.
