Well, add me to the ranks of the "suspended" from that "other" board. I had given JFK at least the benefit of whatever doubt I had, mostly from the few IM's we had sorting out an IP question. Those IMs were cordial and professional, but when I likened his accusation that it is the government who is feeding the fires of conspiracy by not releasing all those worthless videotapes to a "when did you stop beating your wife?" sort of accusation, the intellectual rigor that I mistakenly though was there in a small amount turned out to be absent in toto and BOOM....suspended for a week.
Again, my bad for thinking there was a scintilla of backbone or integrity there. I already know those CIT lunatics know absolutely nothing about aviation or of what they speak, and now the moderator JKF for the LC forums is added to their ranks.
If JFK thought I was aiming that "when did you stop..." quote in his direction, the very least (and common courtesy you would think would dictate) he could have done was ask me first if I was addressing it to him (which I wasn't - it was a rhetorical statement).
Bottom line? These are the people we are fighting against. This is the apogee of the intellectual left. If it comes down to a metaphorical meeting in the arena, it couldn't be easier.
