From WAY out in Left(ist) Field

I couldn't believe this letter I saw from Carol Bamford in the Ragister today...

I am troubled by the references in David Yepsen's column of July 29 to Barack Obama's "Kool-Aid" ("Hold Off on Swallowing Obama Inevitability").

The association of Kool-Aid with blacks has long been recognized as a racial slur.


Equally disturbing is the connection with the Jim Jones suicide cult whose members died from drinking poisoned Kool-Aid.

Is Yepsen suggesting that Obama, cult-like, is leading an unwary nation to its suicidal demise?


Even if these implications were inadvertent, Obama deserves more respect than that, as do Register readers.


Ms. Bamford has been in a sheltered environment of higher education(?) too long and the scientific community is united in that fact!




















For the Record it was Grape Flavor Aid laced with Cyanide that those in Jonestown were forced to down.
