"Both the Bush family and the Kennedy family were high profile investors who admired him greatly so perhaps you will feel that I am in good company whatever your politics are."
Ah, maybe I get it now Epi! This is just intended as a joke! You are implying that my mention of a banker who died 60 years ago and an ambassador who died 50 years ago is ‘seeking popular appeal’. Yes? Very funny – I expect. Sadly I don’t have the same sense of humour as you. Is it some sort of sarcasm? Or is it simply an accidental exposition of your ignorance?
I presume you do know that the Bush family had the $millions that they made from the Third Reich confiscated by the US government and that they ended up hating Hitler? I presume you do know that ambassador Kennedy's admiration of Hitler brought an end to his political aspirations and he ended up hating Hitler too? No, actually I am lying to you; in reality, I presume that you knew nothing about them and you didn't even realise that I was talking about people living in the 1930's.
Now let me see if I can make a similar joke.....
You said: ‘we only pointed out the insanity of what you said’ and ‘some of us find fault with your admiration scale’ and ‘many of us have arrived at the same conclusion’ and ‘many have explained', etc. That IS a perfectly clear appeal to popular approval and the joke is that there are only 3 and a half of you displaying that rather unpleasant, bigoted bias. Now, THAT I do find funny.
Your popular support may not be as popular as you think it is Epi. THAT I find funny too.
The funniest thing of all though was seeing that you had removed the italics from my quote to try to mask that fact that it was you who was actually seeking popular approval. ...... and your posse is 2 and a half!!!!!!!
