The political perspectives within the American Democratic Party cover most of the entire spectrum of politics in the civilized world. 
I've heard is already, some long time ago. It was about CPSU but not for sure, maybe NSDAP?

Well, I was only addressing the political spectrum. Obviously the level of intellectual spectrum of the Democratic Party rarely dips to your level.

I know nothing about the Democratic Party. Neither about the GOP. I was addressing only some basic definitions, more from arithmetic than politics.

I agree. There was a time when I relied on pp to be the first to tell me who had just died. Maybe he himself has…no, I mustn’t think like that.

Wait - I thought we agreed that he perished in a single vehicle accident in New Zealand. Something he frequently wrote or at least linked about. Was that all just in my head?

If you check out the “paradise lost” thread he must have posted dozens of links to people getting killed in NZ traffic accidents. I just presumed it was prophetic.

Maybe he met up with TJ, got married and lived happily ever after.
