Subj: Re: [kl] The Bush Junta & Question of the Day.
Date: Wed, 30 Jun 2004 00:32:24 -0400
Thanks, Bill, for expressing thoughts contrary to the group-think of the
brainwashed masses. You're being very nervy going against the grain. Who's
the real, progressive, rebel these days?
Please stand up.
My clarinet question for the day is:
KlarinetResponders:
Do you favor or are you against seeing political hate (e.g., the Bush JUNTA)
speech on this superb Klarinet list?
In regards to my understanding of the Klarinet list's purpose to which I am
a recent subscriber, I find that this kind of hate Bush message is commonly
disguised as just harmLESS "off-topic" discussion.
Is it?
It's the ARROGANT, SELF-righteous opinion of some who also arrogantly refuse
to honor the intent of this list, which in my humble opinion, is self
evident. Both the OPINION, and the lack of restraint, and the desire to
turn this list into political back and forth really has a bad smell. So I
would be interested to know what all of you think. Perhaps you'd like to
read daily all of Matthew Lloyd's sentiments on the state of the world in
general and his feelings toward his parents, life as a child, etc. Then I
can add my own thoughts on Bush, etc. In fact, we can all just use this
list for our own Blog! Bye-Bye Oh Klarinet List! Welcome Crossfire!
I only enjoy reading what people have to say regarding the clarinet and
music.
People who wish to criticize the current American administration can do it
elsewhere. Why bring the hate/argument of the world here? What's going to
happen if and when Kerry wins? Certainly, the Kerry-haters will come out of
the woodwork and bombard this list with their diatribes. I think we need to
maintain a certain purity of spirit or the integrity of this list will
disappear. And who gains? Who loses? Who cares? But haters need a
vehicle and perhaps the Klarinet list is it. What do I know? I just find
that once you lose standards, you lose everything and chaos reigns. Why,
look at America, and one might see what I mean.
Clarinet Question #2.
In your opinion, which stores in the Orange County/Los Angeles area, have
the most impressive selection of clarinets. I live in Orange County.
Thank you for bearing with me. I look forward to your answers.
Sincerely,
Warren Rosenberg
