Gee!  36 years after saying ‘No’  to the Mob (a long story), I find I’ve now joined it!  And for free; back then, it would have paid a minimum of $75K/yr (A bunch of money back then).

Of course, one has to realize something.  In the modern vernacular, this stuff above is a ‘Mob’, the stuff below is ‘Truth to Power’ (just one example of very many):

and this is ‘Debate’:

You got that?  A loud question from the Right (far right, in that singular case) makes you a ‘Mobster’.  Totally disrupting a discussion and taking over the stage as a Leftist makes you a ‘Concerned Citizen’.  I’m glad we all got that straight!

And just for more clarity, here is my branch of the mob being massively disruptive, with a handful of MoveOn members mixed in, getting viscious Mob treatment:

To Congress: we’d like to make you an an offer you can’t refuse. Stop bankrupting this nation and we won’t send you into retirement.

Can the contrast be any clearer?  I don’t think for one minute the thugs back then would still be welcome at a July 4th Party at the White House!
