Joe said at the outset that Carto was his kind of guy. He repeated that after my latest praise of Carto.
I LISTEN, Joe.
After my bitch about readers who don't copy and paste, which Joe made me think of, Joe apparently got offended:
The difference between Paul Craig Roberts and that pack of paid whores is that Paul Craig Roberts is honest. For whatever reason he decided to go a different route than you did. I really should ask him about that. Maybe I will. I sure would want him in my camp if I were you. Do you suppose it could be that he disagrees with your entire set of premises?

I am not kidding: it is kind of fun to be accused of dishonesty after a lifetime of being criticized for exactly the opposite.
It is also ironic, a type of humor we like. The last time I saw Paul was at the Voice of America in 1985. We were in school together twenty years before. We exchanged opinions and he smiled and the last thing he said to me was:
"You know, Bob, it's kind of nice to know that some things never change."
