You all still can't name a neo fascist. 
Yet, Doug continues to use the term to describe 
the people on this list he has such "profound respect
for." He says we should look into Lee's book for a
definition of a neofascist. I looked and it ain't
pretty. The only one Doug will almost name is Jbore.
Of course he won't do this directly cause he has no
balls. 
What he will do is say that Jbore's posts sound like
or use the language of or are consistant with the
ideas expressed by or can easily be situated....in
other words...Jbore is a neo fascist. Now, you are
fairly new around here Tim (and this goes for Toby and
the other new folks all so anxious to come to Doug's
defense), but Doug has been calling people on this
list Nazis and and neo-nazis and fascists and
neofascists for at least three years. It got so bad
that we could not have a decent discussion of any
Pynchon related topic. 

Play if you must, but not with me.

Bull! There are no posts in the archives that can
support the claim that there are Bush supporters on
this list. If there are, why can't you provide one
example? Doug has accused me and others regular
participants on this list of being fascist and
neofascist. The difference is obvious and no
rhetorical ploy on your part can make it any less so.

Sorry pal, you're the one acting the fool for Doug. 

BTW, a super patriot is synonymous with neofascism.
