		<description><![CDATA[As an aside;if I had the $$$ I believe it would be among my most memorable experiences in my life to attend David&#039;s 75th birthday celebration.

Now; boehner is less than an honorable man; he is not even close to being a conservative, and he has not even had his cajones&#039; drop yet; which in the &quot;ivory tower&quot;/dc, is not unique among an overwhelming majority of the &quot;repulicant&#039;s&quot;!

That POS trotskyite, podesta owes AMERICAN CITIZEN/PATRIOTS AN APOLOGY AND A QUICK EXIT BACK TO HIS &quot;RAT-HOLE&quot;!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Both the Ryan murder and the mass murder/suicide utterly reeked of desperation as you mentioned, and Jones was such that if he couldn&#039;t have control over his cultists in life, he would surely keep them in his thrall in death.

Pretty much your typical tyrannical cult leader/madman.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I doubt that. He had already been exposed by the press as a charlatan and a criminal, hence his hurried flight to Guyana, where he could not be prosecuted under US law. Had he stayed, his cult would almost certainly have collapsed anyway. Many have speculated as to why Jones chose to order the attack on Ryan, and the most likely reason is that he was aware of how totally the defectors who left with Ryan could destroy his reputation.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The description of the airstrip massacre is inaccurate. Larry Layton did not kill Ryan or the members of his party. He shot one Jonestown defector on one of the planes and was disarmed. The massacre was carried out by a death squad almost certainly dispatched by Jones. None of the killers survived the mass suicide/murder.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Called out for what? I&#039;m not a fan of the Dems by any means but Jackie Speier was a staffer of Leo Ryan, and a survivor of the massacre, so other then not talking about it I&#039;m not sure what she did wrong.  
 Actually if anything resembles the People&#039;s Temple Cult it&#039;s the Obama White House, not because of political ideology but because of the cult of personality surrounding the great and unaccomplished.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Some Russian posting on &quot;The Blaze&quot; related how they would get together on Sundays to read from the Good Book.  The good book was not the Bible, but various Marxist tracts.  They were trying to fill the void.   You would think that after indoctrination in grades K thru 12,  extra curricular activities (Young Pioneers aka Soviet Boy Scouts) and everything else they would not need further indoctrination.

After all everything is scientific right?  Atheists  and others who reject religion might strictly use scientific argument but as time goes on they band together, group think and create their own socialist.communist religion.   during the French Revolution is was called The Cult of the Supreme Being&quot;.]]></description>
