"Still Crazy (crying wolf) After All These Years"
Reader comment on: Reckoning With Syria
in response to reader comment: Congresswoman Illeana Ross-Lehtinen anti-Syrian diatribe.

The title of the Paul Simon song is a good commentary on Mr. Retsos' comments (actually his term for the Congress Woman's article, diatribe, far better fits his own ravings). "Racist" Mr. Retsos? That epithet has been hurled so often, and for so many decades, by unabashed opportunists like Jesse Jackson, the "Reverend" Al Sharpton, and their ilk, that it no longer holds any meaning except for those who have no real defense of their position, beyond flinging as many invectives as they can at those with whom they disagree. To paraphrase Shakespeare's famous rejoinder, "Methinks thou dost PROJECT too much."
