Samurai136 0 #1 January 7, 2006 http://progressive.org/mag_mc010206 QuoteGrant Goodman is an 81-year-old emeritus professor of Asian history at the University of Kansas. He has had an ongoing correspondence by snail mail with a former professor of history at the University of the Philippines, where Goodman had taught on three separate occasions. In early December, he was shocked when a letter arrived from her that had already been opened. He won’t release the name of the former professor in the Philippines, but says she is in her mid-80s and hardly a security risk. “This is a very devout Catholic woman who goes to 6:00 mass every evening, and I don’t know what they would be interested in her for,” he says. “She hasn’t written about anything in years.” Who needs the 4th amendment?

Lindsey 0 #5 January 7, 2006 That settles it. Since he's obviously socialist and anti-American, all of his original thoughts shall henceforth be disregarded.-- A conservative is just a liberal who's been mugged.

Samurai136 0 #6 January 7, 2006 QuoteAre you a socialist? I consider that a personal attack. The progressive had the most detailed article. MSNBC and a few other news outlets streamlined some relevant facts out of the story. If private correspondence of an 80 yr old history professor, and WWII veteran is not above suspect by Homeland Security, what is?"Buttons aren't toys." - Trillian Ken Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
