I don't know if it is even worth responding to this post - personally I
don't know the list to which Paul refers - however if this is the attitude
of the owners it seems like one on which the list members should vote with
their feet and leave. One of the good things about lists like this is that
it is relatively easy to start new lists with values of which you approve
(if that is what you want to do).
As for the rest, I thought Paul had roundly lost the argument that
listmembers 'support the values of the Atlantic alliance' - again, does he
even know or care what listmembers are doing concerning the war? No he
doesn't because he has never asked and doesn't actually want to because that
would spoil the ability to produce an argument that is actually based on
pure speculation...
Yours, getting on with a lot of public argument about the war, as well as
other stuff, and ignoring one-track armchair messiahs as much as possible...
David.
PS: I'll be studio guest on BBC Radio Newcastle on Sunday 4th on the morning
phone-in if anyone can or wants to tune in to listen, or phone in and argue
with me
