gearman Posted February 20, 2010 Report Share Posted February 20, 2010 Leftist? Really? What makes it leftist?The general anti-establishment tone; railing against corporations, the rich, major established religion. I realize that both ends of the political spectrum would like to throw this piece of trash into the others court, but at the end of the day, he's not a good fit for either. Just a sick, disillusioned, selfish individual who could no longer deal with his portion of life's disappointments. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ohdaho Posted February 20, 2010 Report Share Posted February 20, 2010 He stole the plane.For everyone else skimming the thread and about to post another "sell the plane" rant: HE STOLE THE PLANE.Doesnt take away from the fact he still had an Elite XLRG registered in his companies name.Pretty sure he could have sold it for atleast $75k to pay for his taxes.

Anti-tax, small government, individualism, self-employed businessman. So, I don't know why you're so anxious to categorize him... and point fingers as to where his political leanings are.

dmagicglock Posted February 20, 2010 Report Share Posted February 20, 2010 he did attack capitalism in his letter at the end and praised communism? That seems more left than right to me... but if he would have held out just a little longer on not paying taxes he could have got a job in the obama administration!

If you read the 2nd sentence of the quoted post you will notice that I decategorized him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disclaimer Posted February 20, 2010 Report Share Posted February 20, 2010 I know, but it was already too late at that point. What's done is done, the guy's dead regardless of what he used to stand for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
