Elayne Boosler's comments on that wayward shepherd of the Church denying the holocaust
prove she is not only a brilliant stand-up and writer, but a better debator than most of the candidates we watched harangue all last year. Her witty riposte {incl: "He's just not that into Jew"} merit a Pulitzer for puns. Her thorough, irrefutabl­e rebuttal of his absurd contention gives us hope, in this era of blitzkrieg by propaganda peddlers full of sound and fury signifying nothin' but bluffin'.
The worst of these pompous snipers (how to choose with such a embarassme­nt of riches?) is that sanctimoni­ous seditionis­t and hypocrite, Ole pill-poppi­n' Preacher Rush -how low can you go-Limbo! Currently draped in clerical collar (and apparently some of Johnny Cash's black suits stitched together) he's so smugly full of hot air, he's on the verge of spontaneou­s combustion­.
Arianna Huffington has eloquently dismissed his latest vitriolic display,
but some more Boosler zingers would make a dandy antidote to his poisonous rants.

It is truly sad that we have no freedom of speech to question History. There have been many lies told about History and if debate is not open then we all live in fear and slavery to those who control what we think or say. It is evil. There was a Catholic Holocaust but it has been ignored by the world and no one would go to jail if they questioned it.

We were all taught in grade school that man is at the top of the food chain vastly superior to all of the other animals intellectu­ally, emotionall­y, scientific­ally, and every other way.
Since grade school I have discovered that while man may be clever and all of that, our greatest achievemen­ts seem to be perfecting incredibly efficient ways to kill each other, poison the planet, and get in the way of the otherwise happy dogs and cats that occupy the planet without complaint.

My dog’s idea of a good day is to wake up to a good meal, take a walk, have a nap and get petted by me. Later she likes to play games with the crows and the crows are happy to oblige. She chases them off the ground into a tree and barks as if she means it. The crows pretend to be scared and then they swoop down just over her head and glide across the yard while she chases them. The crows continue the game until my dog is too tired to play and the crows return to the trees. No one is hurt and a good time is had by all, especially me.

If only we could all play more games and kill each other less the earth would simply be much more enjoyable.

Well you'll get no argument from me. My husband cannot understand why I choose to go to the dog park while he attends the grammy's. Much more interestin­g and humane in my opinion. Animals forever! Elayne (www.tailso­fjoy.net, myspace/ta­ilsofjoy). Thanks for the insight.

‘No Jewish mass grave’ in Poland

ADELAIDE: An Australian Holocaust revisionis­t claims he has proof a mass grave never existed at Treblinka in Poland.
Data collected during a week at Treblinka. using ground penetratin­g radar, found no soil disturbanc­e consistent with 870,000 Jews having been buried there.

Richard Krege, 30, of Canberra, said data collected during a week at Treblinka. using ground penetratin­g radar, found no soil disturbanc­e consistent with 870,000 Jews having been buried there.

‘Historian­s say that the bodies were exhumed and cremated towards the end of the Treblinka camp’s use in 1943. but we found no indication that any mass graves ever existed," he said.

‘Personall­y, I don’t think there was a [death]-ca­mp there at all.’



Mr Krege said he would like to see an internatio­nal group formed, possibly under the auspices of the United Nations, to use ground penetratin­g radar at all concentrat­ion camps in Europe.

He said he was in the process of having other experts review the data he collected, but was confident that they would also conclude the mass burial did not happen.

The young Australian­-born man admitted that he expected to be labelled a racist and anti-Semit­ic.

Great news. Elayne---y­er the bomb!! Your first article on this was great as is this. You likely had a part in taking this ''man'' down.

Mary and Joseph were darned lucky that they were in a stable in Nazareth 2000 years ago. Imagine if they'd been swaddling the Savior in Poland in the early 1940s?

Williamson is a disgrace. He might as well spit on whom he prays to.

ROOK TO BISHOP. CHECKMATE, MATE.

There's always honorary keynote speaker job at the next Iranian Holocaust Conference­.
I wonder how Mr. Williamson reconciles his antisemiti­sm with praying to an Israeli Jew from Galilee
