Rationalize this,


Why? *Do you really, truly, at the bottom of your heart, believe it to be a

OF course he does: Its what this morning's RNC E-mail told him to flog
today. Where Richard is missing a bet is in charging for his services.
For example a while back I got into it with this flogger whose deal
was to fight for sno-mobiles and ATVs in National Parks, Monuments and
battlefields. She haunted rec groups and claimed to be independent.
Then I found the Blue Ribbon Coalition's IRS filing which showed she
was getting $30k+ a year from the industry lobby and that the main
sources of that organization's funds were dealers and foreign
companies. I think she was skirting the law which requires
registration of foreign agents. These same foreign companies were
substantial contributors to various radical wing nut politicians and
Aryan racist groups in the Northwest via the dealers and various front
groups, and were the principal funders of a legal assault to open
marine sanctuaries to jetskies in the San Juan Islands. (They lost.)

The wing-nuts who have temporary control of the Republican party have
been very innovative in using the net with paid and volunteer floggers
to influence public opinion. IMHO Richard is not a formal part of a
dis-information network, but at least he is a fellow traveler.
