3. You might want to get together with some LaRouchie's and learn more.

Just don't give them your name or phone number. I met some LaRouchie's once and they sounded sane for about an hour and then they didn't sound sane anymore. I ran away. Fast. They called me at home repeatedly though, threatening that if I didn't donate to LaRouche then I would personally be dooming the nation to 4-more-years of GWB.

Was it me? Did I do it? Is it my fault!?!?!

:cry:

5. Or your email address either

Hound you and hound you and hound you ... until you finally tell them that they have no credibility. Perhaps if they dumped LaRouche ... but they don't like hearing that so they finally go away.

Run. Fast.

4. one slight problem: La Rouche is a justly convicted SWINDLER

Edited on Sun May-14-06 12:33 PM by Gabi Hayes

he took my dear, departed mom for about 8000 bucks. she was one of hundreds, if not thousands, who took the bait: lend him ten grand, and he signed a contract to pay it back. he actually did pay about two thousand back, so he could trick other gullibles into 'lending' him money. after the first payment, that was it. pretty clever, til there were enough screwees that complained to the JD

the justice department tried to get me to take her to Boston for her trial, but she was too sick

he's the lowest form of vermin there is, this side of the GOP

6. I did *not* know this about LaRouche! Whoa.

I believe it though. He knows many of the 'right principles' -- and then uses them for the same ends as the people who are living by the 'wrong principles' (neoconsters and their ilk).

:grr:

13. Back in the Viet Nam era, and he and his gang

used to turn up at non-violent protests and foment violence. Many people at that time thought he was some sort of Nixonian black-op.

12. When they called me I told them he was only interested in getting

donations cause that was his main source of income, and that the people helping him were doing the same. The woman got hostile with me and they have never called again. The truth stings sometimes. This man has been campaigning all my life.

15. If you haven't heard him or read the EIR writings, you really can't

make an HONEST judgement about what he is saying. I am not supporting the messenger nor would I kill the messenger. It's the message that appeals to me.

16. LaRouche is so nuts I don't know where to place him.

He's been called everything from a Stalinist to a fascist!
