I know I swore a solemn oath to only post regarding AMG's commentaries when
I agreed with him, but this communication is such utter bilge that I can
only conclude that someone has hacked his account or forged email headers
in an attempt to discredit him. In a comradely spirit, I rise to the
defense of the real Mr. Genen.
Mr. Genen, I suggest you contact your Internet Service Provider immediately
to see if they can help track down the malefactor.
Now, I believe that the real Mr. Genen might actually believe in
"collective responsibility"--a concept I personally have a hard time with.
BUT...
Surely the real Mr. Genen would know better than to claim that _all of us_
"choose to give them...power and authority".
Add a checkbox for every elected position for "no award--don't fill this
position", and count every eligible voter who does not turn up at the polls
as having voted for same, and the spurious "Mr. Genen" might have a point.
But of course, we don't have that kind of representation in this country.
We certainly are lucky!
