[net.politics] The Great Wheeler/Perlow Slap Out

arndt@lymph.DEC (07/17/85)

Boys, boys.

Ken Perlow misses TC's point about being a Commie and a Democrat.  He says
Wheeler is inconsistant because first he says 'someone' is a Commie and then
he says 'someone' is a Democrat.  So big deal.  He should have said Democrat
and THEN Commie!  What's the difference?

Just thought I'd clear that up.

Regards,

Ken Arndt

The whole point of the posting was to correct TC's egregious
reading of my previous posting.  Something about "The Russians
are not Mongols."  I agree with TC, that *is* a great line--
nothing I'd ever have thought to say, but it does have a nice ring
to it.  (Anthropologist alert--is it even true?)

Big deal?  That "someone" was me.  What's the diff?  Well, Commies
believe that the main problem in this world is that man exploits man;
Dems see it the other way around.  (Except they use the word "person",
you know, on account of special interest groups.  In Soviet Union, is
only one such special group--Intourist!)
