In reply to the discussion: I remember when Paul Thompson use to post on DU [View all]paulthompson
(2,398 posts)11. I'm still alive!
Hi,
Paul Thompson here. Thanks for thinking of me in this thread. I still frequent this site, but as a lurker only. I haven't posted in ages. I still think DU is the best site on the web for keeping up with the news. But I also saw a big increase in right wing plants and/or genuine conservative Democrat types on this site. So I like following the news links posted here, but I don't want to spend a lot of time and energy arguing with people, many of whom seem unopen to changing their views.
Anyway, I hope everyone is doing well!

Paul was one of the few here who understood global terrorism's roots in GHWBush's BCCI ops.

I understand why you stopped posting. It's massively frustrating to argue with the unconvertable.
