Below, a post from Liberty Forum, in which the
author, a Mr. Smokescreen, authoritatively claims that Barbara
Hartwell, Stew Webb, Rick Stanley, Tom Heneghan and Tom Flocco are
COINTELPRO agents.
Another anonymous little moron posting lies,
hiding behind a screen name, so what else is new? But it's disturbing
that I found the link and headline for this post on What Really
Happened, a high-traffic "alternative media" website.
This Rivero character has done this before. I wonder who's
pulling his strings? I remember him from Free Republic, years
ago. I used to think that maybe Mike Rivero was one of the
good guys. He and I were both banned from FR by Jim Robinson
for criticizing George W. Bush. Odd, Free Republic claims to defend
the Constitution....don't they all? But anyway, I think Mr. Rivero
might want to improve the quality of his "sources". He's
clearly slipping, getting lazy; or maybe he's listening to the wrong
people; or maybe he has sold out. Who knows? Who cares? I
don't, it's just an observation, FYI.

From Liberty Forum:
--------------------------------------
I've left out the thread of ludicrous comments from the other morons who
jumped on the defamation bandwagon, none of whom use their real names,
naturally.
Mr. "Smokescreen" has it all figured out, or so he thinks.
But I have a question for Mr.
Smokescreen: If I'm COINTELPRO, where's my paycheck?
I sure could use one. I went
without food this week just to pay the vet bills, trying to save the life of
a beloved sick cat, who died after two days in the hospital anyway and
which broke my heart. Ask Stew (or the REAL COINTELPRO agents
listening on the phone line.) I called him, weeping (maybe once
or twice a year, I shed some tears) because I couldn't take it anymore,
the isolation and poverty because of these government rat bastards.
I couldn't get the help I needed from anyone, even among the
precious few relatives and friends I told about the situation.
And I didn't ask Stew for money, as I know that just like
me, he has none. He's flat broke. Both of us have been
living in destitution for years, as the government has stolen or destroyed
everything we had. It costs money to fight the government, in case you
wonder. And the fact that we have been extremely effective in our
battles against their agenda, despite the poverty, should tell you
everything you need to know about who we are.
And check this out, Mr. Smokescreen:
FYI, My house is literally falling apart (including safety
hazards) and I can't afford repairs; I'm running out of firewood (most
of which is driftwood I picked up on the beach); I can't afford to fill
the gas tank (which cost $100.00 last time, two months ago, donated by a
relative) and I still can't get my website on-line because I don't have
the money to take care of what needs to be done, including computer repairs
to the malfunctions created by government hackers. I recently got
a small donation for that from a friend, but had to use it (along with the
grocery money for the week) to take care of my cat. Too bad COINTELPRO
wouldn't fork over the cash to sponsor my website......I guess their budget
is under strain these days.....
So, Mr Smokescreen and cohorts, you can take your list of
"known" COINTELPRO agents and shove it!
I'm damn sick and tired of reading my name, defamed in posts by
hundreds of people I've never heard of, who do not know me nor anything
about me, nothing that is real or true. I'm damned sick and tired of
the outrageous lies being spread by morons like you. And I'm damn sick
and tired of hearing the lies about my friends and associates, decent,
honest, hardworking patriots like Rick Stanley and Stew Webb.
I don't know Tom Heneghan all that well, but I've never seen or heard anything
which leads me to believe he's anything but a sincere patriot.
As for Tom Flocco, I've only spoken to him on the phone, but it was a long
conversation and he seemed very sincere to me, just a person
seeking the truth. And although at certain times I may have my
disagreements with each of these gentlemen, regarding various issues, I
can say with no reservations that NONE of them are COINTELPRO.
None. You see, I was trained in Pscychological Operations, the best
training U.S. government-issue money can buy. I know how they
work, how they are run. And I know who runs them. It's not these
folks and you can take that to the bank.
But the COINTELPRO certainly does recruit self-important liars; nutcases;
disgruntled misfits with "legal problems"; wannabes and anonymous
nobodies to post their trash about legitimate government whistleblowers and
patriots on message boards all over the World Wide Web. They have
one thing in common: They're expendable and can be explained away, if need
be, under "plausible deniability". They know nothing
that is real or true; have never been involved in anything of
importance and can easily be removed when they have outlived their
usefulness. Useful idiots, nothing more. People like you, Mr.
Smokescreen.
As for the folks who would believe the lies the Mr. Smokescreens are
disseminating, they are not worth my time or effort to comment on.
Except to say this: If they, in their profound ignorance, enjoy
shooting off their mouths about people they do not know, perhaps because
they are envious of the "real thing", or are seeking approval from
like-minded idiots, let them enjoy it.
You and your friends, Mr. Smokescreen, are nothing but a bunch of scavengers
who delight in sowing discord and doing as much harm as possible.
You apparently have nothing better to do with your time. Maybe it
makes you feel IMPORTANT to denounce people you don't know, spreading lies
that we work for the government. And after all, being the cowards you
are, hiding behind your moronic little screen names, you have nothing
to fear, do you?
By all means, keep spreading your lies. By doing so, you are actually providing
a valuable service:
You are bringing forth the names of those of us who are the REAL threat
to the criminals in government, those who have been deemed "enemies of
the state." You see, Mr. Smokescreen, none of us waste our
time chatting on message boards, gossiping nor engaging in silly arguments; nor
posting second hand news items, some of which emanate from
extremely dubious sources.
No, Mr. Smokescreen, we ARE the sources. We know what we know from
personal experience and/or professional expertise; not the Internet Rumor
Mill, chat boards, bloggers or gossip columns. We do what we do,
fight the battle for Liberty, out of love of our country; not in the
hope of material gain or ego gratification.
And I know I can speak for all of us mentioned here as "known
COINTELPRO infiltrators" when I say that we are all profoundly
disgusted with the hypocrites, liars, poseurs, con artists,
dilettantes, scamsters, political hacks, grandstanders, wannabes and
loud-mouthed ignorant meddling busybodies who are contributing to
the destruction of our country just as surely as if they were making the
tyrannical and unconstitutional government policy decisions
themselves. Because, although most of them are too stupid to know
it, their sabotage of the efforts of sincere patriots and defenders of
Liberty will not bring the false glory they seek but will only hasten
their own downfall. They're not part of the solution, but part of
the problem.
Here's my personal message to all of you morons:
If you, in your ignorance, don't know what you are talking about, don't
shoot your mouth off just because you like to hear yourselves talk.
Learn to respect the personal boundaries of others and mind your own
business. And if you truly desire Liberty but don't have a clue
as to how to fight for it, get the hell out of the way and let the rest
of us do our job.
