No wonder he sounded so prepared. |

As of yet he has not apologized. Likewise, "journalist" William Kristol said the charges (of McCain skipping the silence cone) were unfounded in the New York Times, then once it was proved that the charges were quite well founded, The NYT CHANGED THE STATEMENT for Kristol on the online version with no recognition that a mistake had been made. |

19 Aug 08 - 07:50 PM (#2418182) Subject: RE: BS: McCain the copyright pirate From: GUEST,Jack The Sailor Rig, Its obvious that you did not read the link I posted. especially the part about McCain being a fan of Solzhenitsyn. >>First, know that McCain is a very big fan of Solzhenitsyn's and is fond of referencing him. In McCain's 2007 book Hard Call: Great Decisions and the Extraordinary People Who Made Them McCain devotes an entire chapter to Solzhenitsyn and his experiences as recounted in The Gulag Archipelago. In June 2005, after Sen. Dick Durbin (D-IL) found himself apologizing for likened FBI reports of military tactics used at Guantanamo Base to techniques used in Nazi Germany, the Soviet gulag and Pol Pot's Cambodian "killing fields," it was none other McCain who blasted Durbin publicly, offering this bit of advice during an appearance on Meet the Press: "Senator Durbin owes not only the Senate an apology -- I don't know if censure would be in order -- but an apology because it does a great disservice to men and women who suffered in the gulag and in Pol Pot's killing fields. Dick Durbin should be required to read Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn's 'Gulag Archipelago' and I think that he may have a better understanding that there's no comparison whatsoever. And it does a great disservice to the majority of men and women who are serving in Guantanamo who are doing the job that they're told to do and they're doing it in a humane fashion. To tar the American servicemen and women with a brush that applies to the gulag or the killing fields is a great disservice to the men and women in the military who are serving honorably down there." Also, after Solzhenitsyn passed away a few weeks ago, The New York Sun published an excerpt from McCain's own book (Hard Call) regarding Solzhenitsyn as an op-ed tribute.<< |

19 Aug 08 - 09:46 PM (#2418282) Subject: RE: BS: McCain the copyright pirate From: Riginslinger I suppose the only way to explain it is to recognize that McCain is addicted to the same superstition that afflicted Solzhenitsyn. But when I read Solzhenitsyn I didn't get any kind of feel like that. Frankly, I came away with the impression that if Leon Trotsky had succeeded Lenin, Solzhenitsyn would have been a happy camper--depending on how things went after that, of course. I guess something must be fishy in Siberia. |
