Oh yes, let's all go to the archives and read these
endless stupid posts again -- you FUCKING ANUS
BOARDWRECKER!!

>>>>>>

When "jbor" says "simply not true" all you usually
have to do is go 
to the archives and find the post where he/she in fact
said what 
he/she's currently denying.  I did that the other day
(reproduced 
from the archives the post in which "jbor" did indeed
repeat his/her 
absurd claim that the Dora slaves were not Holocaust
victims, the 
claim that "jbor" was swearing up and down he/she
never made, and 
indeed there it was in the archives) to make this very
point.

If you erase words from or otherwise revise my posts
-- or Dave 
Monroe's or anybody's -- you can indeed make it appear
as if we've 
said whatever you want to assert, and that has clearly
been the case 
here, again and again, on the part of "jbor" and
his/her defenders. 
Everybody who hasn't automatically agreed with
"rjackson/rj/jbor" has 
seen this interlocutor play fast and loose with the
words we've 
actually posted in our arguments with him/her -- Dave
is only the 
most recent victim.  And we've all seen a small band
of P-listers 
parrot "jbor's" views and attack "jbor's" targets, to
the point of 
drowning out any intelligent discussion of the issues
in question.

I like what somebody said here recently, when he
called "jbor" a 
"dishonest bastard".  "Dishonest" (in addition to
"jbor"s perpetual 
mischaracterizations of and outright lies about what
others have 
actually posted) in the sense that "rjackson/rj/jbor"
changes his/her 
views as necessary to keep a disagreement going --
several of you 
have expressed surprise that "rjackson/rj/jbor"
initially agreed with 
my *suggested* reading of GR's opening as an
evacuation of Holocaust 
victims and only later flip-flopped.   Many similar
examples could 
illustrate the way "jbor" uses this tactic to keep a
disagreement 
bubbling.  Starting the argument all over again from
scratch is 
another of "jbor's" favorite tactics,  as "jbor" has
done in the past 
few days with his renewed quibbles about what is or
isn't the 
Holocaust and who is or isn't a Holocaust victim.

By the way, Dave, it wasn't Hollander that "jbor" hit
with 
anti-Semitic mud -- Derek Maus was on the receiving
end of "jbor's" 
anti-Semitic slurs. That's in the archives, too, along
with Derek's 
scathing response to "rj/rjackson/jbor" in the face of
those 
anti-Semitic slurs. Deny it if you wish, "jbor", but
you made those 
slurs, and you were called on it at the time.

It is also certainly true that "jbor /rj/rjackson"
accused Hollander 
and me of hacking into his/her computer, lunatic
accusations that 
"jbor /rj/rjackson" passed around to quite a few
people offlist, 
including a person that "jbor /rj/rjackson" was
hoping, and may still 
hope for all I know, to influence positively with
regard to an 
article "jbor/rj/rjackson" was then peddling.
