Richard Perle up next on CNN.....talking about his new TP collection
Edited on Sun Jan-11-04 01:39 PM by buycitgo
his new book, about the way to end terrorism, is rife with quotes showing just how much at home he'd have been in Germany, about 60 years ago.

there's a website that has a bunch of them, which I'm searching for now.

be back shortly.

meanwhile

We may be so eager to protect the right to dissent that we lose sight of the difference between dissent and subversion... (pg 74)

A free society is not an unpoliced society. A free society is a self-policed society. (pg 77)

We ought to learn a lesson from the most effective anticrime program the United States has ever seen: Mayor Rudolph Giuliani's crack down in New York. Giuliani's core insight was this: People who break one law will break other laws. You want to catch a guy who's skipped out on a manslaughter arrest warrant? Stop every turnstile jumper and inspect his ID. You want to find the killer who left his fingerprints on a knife that stabbed a kid to death yesterday? Scan the fingerprints of everybody you catch smoking marijuana in the park today. (pg 68) ....And there is only one system that will do the job: a national identity card that registers the bearer's name and biometric data, like fingerprints or retinal scans or DNA, and that indicates whether the bearer is a citizen, a permanent resident, or a temporary resident... (pg 70)

Law-abiding citizens value privacy. Terrorists require invisibility. The two are not the same, and they should not be confused. (pg 71)

got ipecac?


EDIT
why I love Karen Kwiatkowski, a Paul ONeill precursor who got effectively no publicity:

http://www.lewrockwell.com/kwiatkowski/kwiatkowski53.html

Why are we occupying Iraq, bombing the living hell out of Afghanistan, pestering Iran and Syria, genuflecting to Sharon, failing to deal with real threats to our nation while piddling away our resources building an empire nobody wants? How are our grandchildren going to pay for the unrestrained stupidity roaring out of the White House? How can we truly employ constitutional restrictions on centralized federal power? How do we stop the scourge of neo-Jacobinism in America?

A new book just released by Random House contains the answers to these questions and more. It is written by some of the most knowledgeable, wise and influential men in Washington today. The authors have taken valuable time from their days of thinking up phrases like "Axis of Evil" (Iran-Syria-Iraq-no-wait-not-Syria-need-a-non-Islamic-country-what-about-North-Korea) and shaping the oh-so-malleable minds of literally hundreds of National Review readers.

David Frum and Richard Perle have saved us all loads of time. We wanted real solutions for American’s foreign and domestic future, and by golly, they have delivered. I announce to you An End to Evil: Strategies for Victory in the War on Terror!

The Frumster and Richer Perle have produced a book that finally reveals "their blueprint for what could become the Bush administration’s agenda in the war on terrorism." My dear, dear boys! Are you saying that in a fit of electoral excitement, young Dubya has already begun to diverge from your neo-Jacobin empire mongering? Is he beginning to exhibit a certain lack of concentration on cementing the White House-Likud Alliance? I mean, who could have predicted that in an election year?

1. Hmm, "People who break one law will break other laws."
Especially if they get away with stealing wreaths from other peoples' doors in college, eh?

Or getting caught driving drunk, right?

Seems like Perle should be putting Bush behind bars, right?

2. Most voters will react very positively to his ideas

Many of them are being phased in already, and the subsequent phases will enjoy even wider popularity with the top 25% income tier, which comprises the bulk of the voting class.

6. Perle is a very dangerous man and a threat to freedom and liberty
and I hope and pray he thinks this post is subversive because that's exactly how it is intended.
