You reveal here that you know as little about MSD as you apparently do of the
disingenuous machinations of Doug Wilson. I know something of both; in
this case, I can corroborate Mr. Weitz' petulance, short-notice calls to duty,
and ranting threats to administrators. <br>
<br>
Would you care to elaborate on, say, the history of Polish marching
bands? Current research on chocolate souffles and their chemical
compositions? Maybe, ohhhhh, how one can be so quick to side with Wilson and
against public schools and still feign incredulity that anyone might think he's
a Kirker? <br>
<br>
Mind you, it's not illegal to be one. But true men of chest are proud of
their ecclesiastical affiliations and Reconstructionist-informed
Libertarianism. Why not come around full circle????<br>
