Ron Olesko BS: Robeson on US stamp in 2004 (16) RE: BS: Robeson on US stamp in 2004 03 Oct 03


PDQ - I think we are both missing something here.   I'm not sure what you are getting at.   I too have consider Robeson, Guthrie & Chaplin to be great role models and I love the fact that all three are now honored on U.S. postage stamps - after all three were vilified by witch hunts. (Guthrie was probably the least effected however.)

My previous comment was based on your earlier post where you brought up Bill Clinton.   I don't think Janice was taking a poke at GW at all in her first post - she was merely HOPING that conservatives do not take exception to Robeson being honored on a stamp.   You chose to bring up Clinton's record and his "lack of action" on a stamp. That would be like me blaming Calvin Coolidge for the U.S. invasion of Iraq.

For the record, I can't stand West Wing - too pompous and self-righteous for my taste, even if I do agree with their politics.
