http://macontelegraph.com/content/macon/2001/08/27/local/ETHREDGE0827.htm By Rob Peecher Telegraph Staff Writer EATONTON --- Jesse Ethredge doesn't care much for President Bush, and he doesn't hesitate to say so. In fact, if you're following the 57-year-old Eatonton man down the road, you'll quickly learn just exactly what he thinks of Bush. "Don't U blame me. Thief --- Liar --- Two Faced Murderer Geo W. Bush. Hell with Bush and all damn Republicans." Those are the words printed, in plastic stick-on letters, on the back of the camper on Ethredge's truck, which is also adorned with a cartoon child urinating on the word "Republicans." Those also are the words that earned Ethredge a visit from the U.S. Secret Service last week. "They came Tuesday, wanting to ask me what did I mean by that there," Ethredge said, pointing to the slogan on his truck. "They asked me a bunch of questions, like if he was to come into my driveway, what would I tell him. I said I'd tell him to get out as fast as he come in it. ... They wanted to see if I was a danger to him." Bush has been closer to Ethredge than one might expect. During the campaign, Bush made at least two visits to Reynolds Plantation on Lake Oconee in Greene County. Ethredge said he believes the visit from the Secret Service was initiated by a man who had come to his house the week before. Ethredge, who lives on Lake Sinclair, has a car with a for sale sign on it parked in his front yard. A few days before the Secret Service came to see him, Ethredge said a man stopped at the end of his driveway. "I come out to see what he wanted; I thought he wanted to buy the car. But then he started talking about the sign and asked me if I knew I could get in trouble with the Secret Service for that. I told him if that's all he was here for, he could leave the same way he came here," Ethredge said. "If I see him again, I'll give him a mouthful." Putnam County sheriff's detective Lee Wilson confirmed it was a call from someone who had seen Ethredge's truck that brought the Secret Service to Eatonton. "We got a call from somebody who had seen his truck and noticed a sign that (the caller said) says 'murder George Bush,' " Wilson said. "I called the Secret Service, and they sent an agent down, and we interviewed (Ethredge) as a matter of policy to see what his mind-set is and if he poses any threat to the president." Wilson said Ethredge cooperated during the interview. "Although he didn't have a lot of use for (Bush), he didn't have any intentions of causing him physical harm," Wilson said. "As far as (the sheriff's office) is concerned, it's a closed matter. I don't want to speak for the Secret Service, but based on my conversation with them, they'll document having contact with (Ethredge)." It was a similar anti-Bush (though a different Bush) slogan on the same camper shell that more than a decade ago got Ethredge much attention from the media and from officials at Robins Air Force Base, where he has worked as a civilian employee for 34 years. That sign --- "Read my lips hell with Geo. Bush" --- got Ethredge a ticket charging him with "provoking speech on a truck" when he drove it onto the base April 5, 1990. The ticket was dismissed since there is no statute against "provoking language on a truck," but in October 1991, Ethredge received a letter from Col. Robert Hail, then-deputy base commander at Robins. The letter instructed Ethredge not to come onto the base with "bumper stickers or other similar paraphernalia which would embarrass or disparage the Commander in Chief." Ethredge contacted the American Civil Liberties Union, and a First Amendment lawsuit naming Hail as the defendant ensued. A U.S. district judge ruled against Ethredge, saying the base did have the power to limit bumper sticker content. Ethredge appealed to the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals, and the 11th Circuit initially ruled the case moot since Bush lost the election to Clinton. So, Ethredge says, he added a line about Bill Clinton "more or less to keep the case going." While he has no love for Republicans --- the first sign Ethredge had on a vehicle was about Ronald Reagan --- Ethredge said he didn't really have anything against Clinton. But he nonetheless added a slogan to his truck that read, "Hell with Clinton and Russian aid." The 11th Circuit then ruled against Ethredge, and the lawsuit ended there, said Gerry Weber, the ACLU attorney handling the case. "We stopped at the 11th Circuit level," Weber said. "Just within the context of a military base, people's free speech rights are as restricted or potentially more restricted than inmates in a jail." Weber said he was surprised to hear Ethredge had become, if only briefly, the subject of a Secret Service probe. After hearing the content of the new slogan, Weber said, "That doesn't sound like it warrants a Secret Service investigation." Weber also said a state statute outlawing obscene or lewd messages on bumper stickers was struck down by the state Supreme Court, so Bush supporters wishing to silence Ethredge have no recourse there. Ethredge --- who also is well known at the Putnam County Tax Commissioner's Office, where he pays his property taxes in pennies --- has not worked at Robins since 1998 when he left on a workers' compensation claim after a knee injury. He plans to retire next month.

I've known very few Jewish people who believe God gave them Israel, but it clearly has something to do with why that particular patch of land was chosen. Maybe it's the Schelling point of Zionism. The area is symbolically loaded for Jewish people, but the downside is that it's important to other people as well. Most Israelis that I've known see the religiously based Zionists as crazies, especially the ones from the U.S. Saying that Israelis are a certain way because there are people in Israel with certain views is as reasonable as saying that Jim Bell is a good guide to the cypherpunks. The exact nature of Zionism seems hard to pin down, sort of like defining a "cypherpunk". It is clear that many Zionists are not religious. > And I know many people who support, as I do of course, the right of > Aryan Nation(s) to do their thing without lawsuits from offended > Jews and liberals.

Agreed. Many prominent Catholics have publicly declared that abortion is murder. Applying the same level of integrity as has been applied in criminal trials of technical people, this could be seen as incitement. What is insidious about charging people with organizational involvement is that it bypasses the criminal justice system. The organization itself doesn't stand trial. At the same time the members are not charged with any specfic crime. Thus, the trial can consist of little more than innuendo and the defendant stands a good chance of conviction. It is very close to simple political repression. > The Jews lacked their equivalent of a Reformation, the Lutheran and > Calvinist revolution in thinking which laid the groundwork for the > modern age.

But aren't you the one bringing up the racial purity theory here? I've never known a Jewish person, and I've known many, who spent any time worrying about the genetic purity of their Jewish descent. Presumably they exist somewhere, but the breed is rare. Some Jewish people do seem to have long discussions about "What is a Jew (sic)?", but they do not seem to be genetically driven. I am having a little difficulty understanding what you mean by "embracing the future". This strikes me as a straw man, but perhaps I'm not getting your point. The Jewish community, even the Jewish religious community, does not seem to have had any problem accepting scientific discoveries, which one could describe as "embracing the future". Many Christians, Protestant and otherwise, have had serious problems in this department. For example, the theory of evolution was accepted without a fuss. Even in Jewish religious schools, the theory of evolution is taught. I think the idea behind going to Palestine and founding Israel was to find a way to not be murdered any more. After over 1000 years of abuse ending with 2/3 of the group being killed, it doesn't seem unreasonable that many of the survivors would conclude that it was unsafe to live among Europeans. My guess is that they figured they could just sort of push the Arabs aside and after a bit of fuss, everybody would get used to the idea and they'd have a country where they would have full political rights and even own land without fears of confiscation. Most peoples have done exactly the same thing at some time or other. And, there was already a sizeable Jewish population in Palestine. Do you believe that Jewish activities along these lines are more offensive than similar activities by many other people? If so, do you find them offensive because they are so recent, or is it just the unpleasant fact that American money is contributing to it? > I don't care too much if Arabs and Jews are killing each other, but > I hate like hell to see taxpayer money and armaments shipped to > ZOG-Occupied Palestine to help kill more Arabs and expand ZOG > borders. Agreed. I have better things to do with my money, too. Here's my somewhat uninformed take on the Middle East: Anything the U.S. is doing there is going to be related to oil. Support of Israel gives the U.S. cards to play with the oil producing countries. If the oil producing companies are uncooperative, Israel gets new cool weapons. If they are cooperative, then the U.S. news media start talking about the bad things the Israelis are doing. When the oil producing countries complain, the answer is probably that the Jewish lobby is so powerful that the U.S. has to support the Israelis. I believe that the Jewish lobby is powerful only to the extent that they are allowed to be. If they stood in the way of U.S. policy to any significant extent, they would be curtailed. Israel also plays a useful role for the oil producing governments - they help keep the population unified. A great deal of money flowing into the area does not benefit the populations of the countries there. For example, half of adult male Saudis are illiterate. Keeping those people focused on Israel keeps them from noticing where the money is going. Also, the rulers can accuse detractors of being Israeli spies. I do not think U.S. support for Israel has much to do with post-Holocaust compassion or with the desire to support a democracy in the Middle East or with the Jewish lobby. > And I am offended--but also amused--by the irony of European Jews > recapitulating Hitler's "lebensraum" and "Endlosung" solutions so > soon after WW II ended. Yes, Jacobo Timerman ("Prisoner Without a Name, Cell Without a Number") said the same thing a few years after he fled to Israel from Argentina. He made himself somewhat unpopular by questioning the propriety of the invasion of Lebanon. Some Israelis felt he was ungrateful. Sort of interesting because the original idea was that everybody Jewish could consider themselves Israeli and therefore gratitude would not be in order. (A comparison could be made to the Palestinian situation with respect to their alleged brother Arabs.) Anyway, there is probably a well understood psychological phenomenon at work. Once somebody is abused, they will tend to find somebody else, hopefully subordinate, to mistreat. I've wondered whether this effect isn't related to explain Henry Kissinger's criminality. Kissinger lost two relatives in the Holocaust, but in his political career he associated with and backed people with less than pristine credentials. For example, Nixon had connections to war criminals associated with the Rumanian Iron Guard. The military regimes Kissinger encouraged in South America tended to have people with a certain admiration for the Third Reich. The policies pursued in Southeast Asia bear certain similarities to those of the Nazis. Timerman, incidentally, described himself as Zionist. >> People carp about Tim, but I'd like to see anybody try to do one >> Tim May quality post every day for two weeks. > Thanks, even if you're a Jew-lover. Literally the truth, although not exclusively. ;-)
