As with most SWPers I was recruited out of the Young Socialist Alliance (having joined them after SDS and the Weatherman split -- those crazies were positive loons -- as reflected in several documents in my Benedict Arnold period papers including, if I recall correctly, their position document Prairie Fire). My contact in Columbus OH at the time was Shirley Pasholk (sp?). At the time we were engaged in trolling the anti-war movement at Ohio State for likely recruits for YSA and SWP.

"I was who I said I was, to my undying shame and reported to no one except the secret party leadership who recruited me."<br /><br />Mike there is no shame in your life's path, you have been forthright and honest in who you are and were (unlike many who profess to be "patriots"). Winston Churchill once said; "If a man is not a liberal at 20 and a conservative at 50, then there is something wrong with him." I too had a similar epiphany as you and it took a Wehrmacht Luftwaffe mechanic who survived not only Hitler but three years in a Soviet gulag and then 20 years in the USMC, to open my eyes. I wish you God's speed in your journey. You have already done more to aid the cause of freedom than most of us will ever accomplish You are on my list of people I want to meet someday, in this life or the next.SFMedicnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7575061201749703300.post-29285299472666278172016-01-06T12:34:39.387-06:002016-01-06T12:34:39.387-06:00Not thats its our bussiness...

They sometimes seem to lack the essential connection between words and reality which makes it possible for a statement to be significantly true or false in the first place.Chiu ChunLinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03519192610708043962noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7575061201749703300.post-18050689857967097602016-01-06T10:50:07.047-06:002016-01-06T10:50:07.047-06:00Mike,

We all have sins to atone for, as I one day must before my God. <br /> You are an honest man, saying what must be said. You have had the courage to face up to public atonement, something scant few can muster the spine to do. It is an act that will never be seen in Washington, D.C. (as you aptly call it, "Mordor on the Potomac") or in any state house.<br /> You have set the bar high for honesty in your work and disclosure. May others (including myself) have the same moral rectitude.<br /> Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
