THE ROBERT W. WHITAKER ARCHIVE

IN BOB'S BLOG, COMMENTS ARE RICHES | 2005-10-20

In Bob's Blog, we have to take it for granted that Bob knows what he is doing.

So when Joe talks about justices and the law, I can tell he has been thinking about what I said.

But I will not approve it if someone decides to dump his sermon in this blog.

And I'm pretty good at knowing the difference.

This is much more professional than the average person can easily understand. The point here is to

stimulate thought on YOUR part.

"But," someone could say, "How can you presume to judge whether a person's independent statements are the thoughts you want to stimulate? Isn't that totalitarianism?"

I think "someone" is an idiot.

And, before anyone gets paranoid, I made up someone to have a straw man.

Bob can tell better than other people whether someone is giving me a thought I helped stimulate or making a speech he would have made if I had never been born.

Bob can also appreciate the people who jump in here and say what I make them think of.

You who do that are my pay. Who else can make good minds move?

OK, enough of reading all this treacle.

Get off your asses and MOVE!

And don't be nervous about it.

Just remember that if you don't do it right I'll GET you!
