THE WAY I SEE IT ARCHIVES

I remember years ago as child around 10-11 years old, I had possessed a comic book where on the front a woman says, "I can't stand him, but I love his kisses." Metaphorically, this explains my feelings on Conrad Black who convicted on 4 counts of mail fraud. I possess his book through a history professor friend called, "Duplesssis" about Quebec's provincial premier during the '30's through the 50's---a very thick book. Another recent book, yes another large and thick one on late former U.S. President Richard Nixon which I read partially the latter chapters. Thoroughly researched and articulately written. I love his interviews with TVO's Alan Gregg on his works. Conrad Black is no dummy and possesss incredible intellect to be respected. Where the angry breath under my nostrils against this man begins is that he is in no doubt arrogant, elitist, religiously selfish which he considers a proud virtue to be promoted. He is truly a 19th century laissez-faire baron and that is probably why of the likes of Toronto Sun's Peter Worthington and fellow neo-conservative blogger Adam Daifallah so esteem him so highly. There are those that believe that this was a conspiracy against Black and an attack on those who are priviledged. I cannot firmly disagree more with those sentimental thinking. This man had a pattern of exploiting people in order take over their business and at my church today, a woman told me she worked where Conrad Black worked back in the early '70's and it was reported that he was meddling with the pension. Do you see a pattern? Me and this woman both said, "Amen!" to the charges Conrad Black was getting. I have no tears for the man because this man is a malignant narcissist who believes it is all about him and him only. I have encountered those who are malignant narcissists, escpecially those that were in a position of power and authority. It amazing how destructive and how much they get away with . It is my hope that sentencing on November 30th of this year will be swift, severe and just. May it serve a lesson to those that anything you do, is of serious consequence. You cannot always get away with it.
