RESPONSE: Aquino Noronha (AN) has not been rude.....he has silently withstood reading you /deleting your msgs for several months before finally saying something. He is entitled to his observations without being called rude. > Aquino would obviously like me to express views that are "extremely > biased" from a "left-wing standpoint"......since he makes no mention > of the frequent "extremely biased" views from a "left-wing standpoint" > by others on Goanet. RESPONSE: Don't you think you are assuming a little too much about what AN said. He has not asked you to express anything.....he is just characterising what he has been observing for the past several months. > Most of the time my posts do not initiate such threads but are > in response to such extremely biased, left-wing posts by others. RESPONSE: Not always true....."Islamo-fascists" is something you bring-up at the drop of a hat. And the Editor Emeritus Haroon Siddiqui would characterize you as an Islamophobe. > The problem I have with people like Aquino is that they > complain with vague generalities without a single specific > comment about anything I have said. Thus all we learn from > his post is that he is a liberal, anti-Bush left winger, > with an interest in stifling opinions he disagrees with. RESPONSE: Assumptions, assumptions, assumption !! AN is not complaining. He is making an observation. Can we characterize your constant alluding to "left- winger(s) and Islamo-fascists", etc.....as complaints ?? And neither has he been vague. He has been very clear observing that you only write-in with "conservative, pro-Bush mails" "to spread your extremely biased views on all matters with a very right-wing standpoint." You have gone ahead and quite simply assumed that AN is a liberal, anti-Bush left winger!! For all you we know, AN may not even be residing in the US. Having said that you can be accused of the same charges you are alluding to - "an interest in stifling opinions you disagree with". Now - are you going to characterize me as a liberal, anti-Bush left-winger?? Best wishes - Bosco T-dot-O
