item 1: i just spent the last six hours reading about the details of
Godel's proof of incompleteness in mathematics, my brain hurts, BAD,
from this effort, and yet i have to tell you, your logic here is
incomparably more incomprehensible. as far as i can tell the structure
of your argument is something like "if A uses a word that is also used
by Bush and his class, then A supports Bush-class  policies in Iraq". To
which any budding (marxist) scholar, mathematically inclined or
otherwise, would counter with an expression common in the theory and
practice of logic: the HUH???? response.

item 2: didn't you read my fundamental contribution to marxmail this
morning when i argued strenuously for clipping quoted text in a post? if
not, please do so now. i'll fill in any holes in the logic as you
require. though this is not true in most cases, it turns out that your
inclusion of the entire post within your own adds considerably to the
feeling of disbelief that your are reading Fred's (and by extension
anyone's) posts for semantic as well as syntactic content.
