Message: Entry: Lies, Ignorance and "Useful Idiots"... Link: http://www.takimag.com/blogs/article/lies_ignorance_and_useful_idiots#13400 Post contents: Just two afterthoughts: 1. I tend to agree with Mr Foy about most things, and that's why I always say he's being counter-productive whenever (as usual) he confuses the current war in Iraq with his own grievances against England. To my mind, Mr Foy (whom I know ONLY from what he posts on this site) personifies the tragedy of many Irish-Americans whose bog-fogged blinders about "England" prevent them from seeing a much bigger picture. What a loss, what a terrible waste of so many great Irish-American minds and hearts. 2. Mr "FoSquare", your unctuous, effete, supercilious attempts at sarcasm often remind me of the character, "Anthony Patch" in "Brideshead Revisited", a flaming homosexual whose voluptuous fascination with effete "wit" made him, in the end, a mixture of pathos and ludicrousness, whose attempts at humour end (as Anthony Patch liked to quote Eliot) not with a bang but a whimper.
