Lennon files

FBI to Release Last of Its John Lennon Files

It is now known that it said two prominent British leftists, Tariq Ali and Robin Blackburn, had courted Lennon in hopes that he would "finance a left-wing bookshop and reading room in London."



But the newly released document adds that Lennon apparently gave them no money "despite a long courtship by Blackburn and Ali."

What better reason to investigate Lennon. Left-wing books? And readers of those books? Anarchy!

I wonder if W is channeling Hoover and Nixon's ghosts. His paranoia and fear mirrors theirs.
