James Traficant

Wow, Traficant has found shelter at the right wing American Free Press:

http://www.americanfreepress.net/html/quarterback__a_congressman_199.html

and will write a weekly column.

From his first column:

I have been called anti-government, anti-Republican, anti-Democrat, anti-Semitic and bigot—just a few of my labels. My politics are anti-big government, anti-IRS, anti-foreign lobbies, anti-socialism and anti-Communism. Truth is, my politics are simply pro-American—period.

Any issue, regardless of the hype or emotions, that is not in the best interest of America, I oppose. I believe in and support the Constitution and our Bill of Rights. Any manipulation of our constitutional mandate is a cardinal sin to me.
...
I guess I’m old fashioned—in fact I believe that all those new world order politicians are so dumb and misdirected that if they fell out of bed, they’d miss the floor. :D
...
I believe this new world order has bankrupted our great nation. We’re bankrupt and the Congress is nothing more than a bunch of trustees presiding over the biggest chapter 11 proceeding in world history.

Very true, read: http://www.lewrockwell.com/orig5/goyette6.1.1.html

...

The major reason for the average American to be so passive and inactive is quite simple—the mainstream media of the U.S.A. distorts the truth—withholds the truth—and in many instances is controlled and influenced by foreign entities. I even question the loyalties and politics of some of their owners and publishers.

I wonder who these 'foreign entities' might be. Norway? :rolleyes:

It should be of no surprise to know of my support for AMERICAN FREE PRESS, even though I may disagree with the AFP on some issues. The AFP reports the truth—the unvarnished truth, regardless of the pressures that are brought to bear against them, and there are many.

Does this mean that Traficant has doubts regarding the holocaust? Could be: http://jta.org/news/article/2009/10/30/1008850/trafican-says-he-will-testify-for-demjanjuk

I plan to address the influence and power of AIPAC and its control over our very lives. The reason to abolish the Federal Reserve system; the reason to abolish our Communist progressive income tax; the absolute need to repeal the 16th Amendment to the Constitution; and my proposals to save and create jobs; to stop the hemorrhaging of our federal debt, to reverse our massive trade deficit and stop illegal immigration.

I will also address the issue of John Demjanjuk, who is not being just prosecuted - Demjanjuk and his family are being persecuted, and no one in Washington will help. I plan to help him and will testify in Germany about the crimes in the Justice Department if subpoenaed.

So, he's mad as well as being a crook.

I can see why you like him.

The usual 1-2 line intellectual light weight smear without content.

Never mind, here on Ron Paul's website are links to a recent interview an Ohio radio station had with Traficant:

http://www.dailypaul.com/node/110745

For a European like me the machinations Traficant was subjected to are almost inconceivable. America is afraid of it's own government.
 
Indeed! European Politicians found guilty of various crimes usually become PM of their country, or get promoted to the European Parliament/Council. The idea of jailing a politician for corruption hasn't really caught on yet in Europe.

I say that Traficant is mad and a crook and you reply that my words have no content?

I suddenly have an image of someone trying to type whilst keeping a finger in each ear.

My words do actually have content. To wit: Traficant is a convicted criminal and his beliefs are nuts. Those statements constitute "content". Any time I wish to engage you with mere vacuous persiflage ... I shall let you know.

Well, indirectly, you did bring Holocaust-denial in here. You mentioned that the ranting lunatic, on his release from prison, has become a columnist for a whackadoodle Holocaust-denying rag not fit for lining the bottom of a bird cage.

Calling AFPN a legitimate news organ on this page rates a pack of laguhing dogs. Those vermin at that outfit are lower than Faux News anchors.

I said it was a 'smear without content'. Yours words 'mad and crook' are fully covered by the word 'smear' and since you decline to elaborate as to why he is 'mad and a crook' I have to stay at my original diagnosis: 'smear with no content'.

My words do actually have content. To wit: Traficant is a convicted criminal and his beliefs are nuts. Those statements constitute "content". Any time I wish to engage you with mere vacuous persiflage ... I shall let you know.

Dr. Adequate repeats his original smear in the full belief that he is producing content. Somehow it is touching.

Convicted by who? By that regime that stampedes into countries, making hundred's of thousands of victims on the basis of a pretext, just because The AIPAC, The Forward, The Weekly Standard, Fox and AEI want it? That regime?

It's an honor to be convicted by these criminals.

About the conviction: here are 2 more video's I hadn't seen before:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MIFpzviZVT8

And the conviction: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9VVsfn3BCg0&feature=related

It's amazing how Traficant dominates that event with his wit and mockery. Traficant is larger than life unlike these 'don't rock the boat' mice sitting behind the table.

Uh, no, by a jury of his peers. You don't know much about the legal system in America, do you?

Evidence that any of the jurors were criminals?
 
Quite. They looked at the evidence and arrived at a valid, logical conclusion in an unbiased way. 9/11 Investigator doesn't like evidence.

You want to make a distinction between members of Congress and 'the regime'? You don't understand much about American politics and politics in general, do you?

Congress went along with the government and funded the operation, an illegal war. QED.

Ohhh, the entirety of the government is criminal. That's much more reasonable.
 
So Traficant finds a home with a Anti Semitic rag that basically a revived version of WIllis Carto's notorious "The Spotlight". Sweet.
