I feel I must assert my freedom to comment on an important public issue that Paul Mannone has thrust into the vortex of public comment. First off, unlike Paul's tractates, my own revenge fantasies are not vague and undefined. So let Paul call me dour. I call him mingy. We must understand that what really gets my goat is knowing that he is calling for blind, impulsive action for the sake of action, for the sake of making himself feel good. And we must formulate that understanding into as clear and cogent a message as possible.

By the same token, Paul's policies will have consequences -- very serious consequences. And we ought to begin doing something about that. Paul offers two principal reasons as to why he can change his putrid ways. He argues that (1) genocide, slavery, racism, and the systematic oppression, degradation, and exploitation of most of the world's people are all completely justified, and (2) he could do a gentler and fairer job of running the world than anyone else. These arguments are invalid for the following reasons: First, he has compiled an impressive list of grievances against me. Not only are all of these grievances completely fictitious, but Paul has been trying to convince us that it's inappropriate to teach children right from wrong. This pathetic attempt to tear down all theoretical frameworks for addressing the issue deserves no comment other than to say that Paul claims to have turned over a new leaf shortly after getting caught trying to progressively narrow the sphere of human freedom. This claim is an outright lie that is still being circulated by Paul's helpers. The truth is that Paul claims that space gods arriving in flying saucers will save humanity from self-destruction. Predictably, he cites no hard data for that claim. This is because no such data exist.

I don't object to Paul's magic-bullet explanations because thanks to Paul, the worst types of nutty cutthroats there are can now freely create an atmosphere that may temporarily energize or exhilarate, but which, at the same time, will pose the gravest of human threats. I object because he is absolutely mistaken if he believes that the majority of brown-nosing incubi are heroes, if not saints. In closing, although this letter has been lengthy there are still a large number of comments about Paul Mannone that I have had to leave aside. I didn't even begin to mention, for instance, that anyone who denies this and insists on looking at issues from a single perspective is a participant in a flat, simplistic, and incomplete world. Anyway, the important point is that the only visible result of Paul's initiatives has been a series of tactical and strategic policy blunders.
