Wilson's little tactic is this:  "If you don't treat a subject in exactly
the same way I do, you treat that subject in the opposite way."  As in, if
you don't relish, indeed celebrate, the body count, you ignore it.  "You are
either FOR the state or you are AGAINST it, comrade!"  This sort of
categorical thinking seduces (or intimidates) the mindless - the Klahns and
Sauers of the world, which is why fascists like Wilson are so enamored of
it.  It helps them control mindless people.  Notice who Wilson's comment was
addressed to.

Speaking of fascists, Klan's new Debate rule about calling participants
liars is designed expressly to shield *himself* from that charge.  It is his
very own little Alien and Sedition Act - or more recently, the Sedition Act
of the Wilson administration.  Although there is a wide disparity in the
number of lies each has told, Klahn is second only to Otto in Fido history.
While both qualify as egregious liars, Otto is off the charts.
