WELCOME MR. KENNEDY TO
DALLAS. . .


. . .A CITY so disgraced by a recent Liberal smear attempt that its citizens have just elected two more Conservative Americans to public office.


. . .A CITY that is an economic "boom town," not because of Federal handouts, but through conservative economic and business practices.


. . .A CITY that will continue to grow and prosper despite efforts by you and your administration to penalize it for its non-conformity to New Frontierism.


. . .A CITY that rejected your philosophy and policies in 1960 and will do so again in 1964--even more emphatically than before.


MR. KENNEDY, despite contentions on the part of your administration, the State Department, the Mayor of Dallas, the Dallas City Council, and members of your party, we free-thinking and America-thinking citizens of Dallas still have, through a Constitution largely ignored by you, the right to address our grievances, to question you, to disagree with you, and to criticize you.


In asserting this constitutional right, we wish to ask you publicly the following questions--indeed, questions of paramount importance and interest to all free peoples everywhere--which we trust you will answer. . .in public, without sophistry.

These questions are:

partially so that I can find this thread again later on. There's much here that calls for serious study.

I really LOVED Herblock, way back then, and wonder if there is a Herblock collection book.

But can anyone here help me establish that it's "genuine"? By that, I mean NOT Photo-Shopped, and/or that rather indistinct photo IS actually Wesley Pruden.

I'll go through it in detail tomorrow. Do you have any direct connection with it?

From my early youth, I've held strongly "ant-militarist" beliefs, and I thought I'd never see the day when I'd look at a 4 star general with favor. But old age is not only mellowing me, but melting many of my once rock-hard mindsets.

Sound more like they're just trying to stir up some shit between Obama and Clark! (I've been very interested in whatever Clark had to say, ever since I learned that he was a serious reader of Noam Chomsky!)

Dobbs resonates with a lot of people who share much of the same disaffection with the 'establishment" as does DU, although they're totally FREAKED OUT out on jingoistic "Nativist" issues. I can recall more than few paens of praise to Dobbs last year, right here on DU!

I was thinking of solar panels, but rotary devices (such as wind generators) are inherently AC. But then frequency regulation was the problem I had in mind when "paralleling" it to the grid. (Get it wrong, and the generator may be "motorized"!) But apparently, that's a 'trivial" problem.

I can grasp the idea of simulating a sinusoidal wave shape with tiny slices, but I thought that the tiny pulse "shoulders" would still create a problem. But I'm apparently wrong!

And thanks for realizing that it wasn't a "doofus" question!

it was "padded" by lengthy lingering on still photos. But that's characteristic of many documentaries. Anyhow, I've got it in the Amazon shopping cart, and will make a final decision in a day or so.
