RCA & the Reston Festival: Fun, Games and Holocaust Denial
If you're wandering around the Reston Festival this weekend and happen to make time between visiting the gutter guard booth and the chili dog stand to stop by the Reston Citizens Association booth to do a little of that stone-cold votin', be warned: One of the RCA's unopposed candidates is a Holocaust denier. Wait, what?

Ken Meyercord has an Ivy League education, a high-tech job at Freddie Mac, a local public-access cable television show on international affairs and a long history of writing about what he says are "myths" of the Holocaust, including a piece called "(Holo-) History is Bunk."

Now Meyercord hopes to add a new entry on his résumé: winning an at-large seat on the board of the Reston Citizens Association, a quasi-governmental body that sets the agenda for the community of 60,000, which is not officially a municipality. The odds are in his favor, because he is running unopposed.

But some residents, mortified by his views on the Holocaust, have thrown together a last-minute write-in campaign to stop him. Former RCA Board Member Debra Steppel, along with five volunteers, is soliciting votes for write-in candidate Colin Mills, a member of the board who was not planning to seek reelection until Meyercord's views came to light.
All because of easily misconstrued comments like this:
"To hear eyewitnesses tell it, it took little more than a match for the corpses to spontaneously combust."
That's not from his RCA campaign literature, which advocates making sure Reston doesn't turn out like "Queens," but from one of his publications that got the attention of Steppel, the former RCA board member behind the write-in campaign. But we're sure Mr. Meyercord will clear up this whole wacky misunderstanding. Right?
In an interview yesterday, Meyercord described himself as "a Holocaust revisionist," taking pains to distinguish himself from Holocaust deniers.

"I believe millions of Jews were uprooted from their homes and died in droves," Meyercord said. But he dismisses as Allied propaganda the assertion that Nazi Germany embarked on a mission to annihilate European Jews, a plan known as the Final Solution. He also denies that Nazis used gas chambers to murder Jews, saying gas chambers did not exist, and expresses skepticism that the number of Holocaust victims reached 6 million.

Meyercord said he does not understand the fuss over his candidacy. "I would say it's a little off-topic," Meyercord said.
Among his other, more on-topic accomplishments: a "song parody" called "America the Doodiful." We're guessing there's some satire at play there, but we're not sure. Anyhoo, voting continues through Sunday, so be sure to grab a corn dog and do the right thing if you're in that neck of the woods.

Hi! My name is Ken Meyercord. I am the founder of Zero Growth, an organization dedicated to promoting the ethos of zero growth. As a father of two, I take a personal interest in the world my generation, the creators of the greatest growth the world has ever known, bequeaths to the next generation. My perspective on growth has been enhanced by travels in some 70 countries but could just as well have arisen from what I see taking place in my own neighborhood. I invite you to visit our website (www.zerogrowth.org) to learn why we call for a new attitude toward growth and meet others who share our concern.

Why doesn't this jerk voluntarily remove himself from the planet?

Only one Meyercord in Reston with arrests. I cannot say if there is a connection, but I doubt it given the age of the arrests.

They said on the radio Mr. Meyercord lost the election to a write in candidate. He only received 23 votes, letting us know there are 22 other anti-semites in Reston.

So you are touting growing up in Herndon over Reston. Interesting strategy.

Well, the logic didn't look like a fail until now.

Maybe this will help: that area is now called Oak Hill. I grew up in Oak Hill.

Nice recovery.

Lol, at least the majority of Reston can speak English, which is more than I can say for our Western neighbor.

Okay, I can sort of understand not wanting to attribute the Nazi's Eugenics policy as being solely about the jews. They certainly had more than just Jews on their mind in their ethnic cleansing regime. They didn't particularly like the handicapped, the mentally retarded, the mentally ill, gypsies, the foreign born, the weak, the artists, etc.

Denying that the Nazis used gas chambers? They didn't exist? Sure, I know there are inconsistencies in some of the survivors' stories, where one description talks about a diesel engine used to kill people while a diesel engine would be the least effective way. But what the fuck is Zyklon-B??? So a guy who was in a prison camp who probably didn't know any better claims they used diesel engines, and that seems the least likely method, so therefore it didn't happen??? There is documentation, even from the Nazi's themselves, that they used Zyklon-b, produced by I.G. Farben.

It's one thing to question if it was all about jews. It's another thing to claim that it never happened.

It fucking happened. There are camps that are now museums, memorials or historical sites.

Hmm. Lot's of name-calling here. Interesting.

My read on this topic is that Meyercord never said "it didn't
happen". Meyercord simply questioned historical details. As should
we all.

As a son of a WWII vet, I know "it happened". I've also personally
walked through Dachau. But if you hope to have an adult conversation,
first define your terms. "It"? What, "it"?

Exterminating 6 million Jews only by Zyklon-B? No. Deaths of Millions
during WWII? Yes. Concentration camps pre-built for extermination? No.
Camps built to house prisoners of war, where they often died due to
disease, malnutrition, abuse? Yes? Anne Frank's diary written in
ballpoint pen? No, ballpoints didn't exist.

Did the Auschwitz museum director himself, Piper, say the gas chamber
was actually built AFTER the war? http://www.rense.com/general53/aauz.htm
Find out for yourself, it just takes a bit of personal effort. Who
"liberated" Auschwitz, Americans or Soviets. Do you even know?

Folks, read a bit. Look around. It's still okay to think and read. (Those
who wish to go back to hating and name-calling can do that very easily.)

Neither you nor Jews nor Meyercord nor America are served by name-calling,
mis-representation, or frank ignorance.

You know, logically you cannot debate with a nut like Meyercorrd; sometimes name calling and blunt vitriol are the only ways to describe another's motivation to present dangerous and uniformed commentary as fact.

I bid you good day, you f&cking moron.

They've done tests for Zyklon B in tissue, bone, and on the walls of the "showers". All have tested positive for cyanide residue.

Not to mention the War-hardened GI's who threw-up and became ill at the very sight of these camps. If that isn't the ultimate testament towards the reality and brutality of the NAZIs and their Camps, then I have no idea what is.

That's because the Jew-Rays were affecting them. If they knew the REEL TROOTH, they would know that the Joooz were laughing at them all along.

Come on guys, don't you know I spew this crap just to get my hot Palestinian wife to give it up every so often?

Antisemetism runs rampant in Reston. Everytime Democratic Congressman Jim Moran wants to rail on the Jews, he heads out to Reston to deliver his remarks.

I've been to the Anne Frank House twice, and it was obvious to me that the diary was not written in ballpoint.

Anyway, here's the info from www.annefrank.org:

>> All the diary entries are written in various types of ink and (coloured) pencil, not in ballpoint. The document analysis by the Netherlands Forensic Institute showed that the main part of the diary and the loose sheets were written in grey-blue fountain pen ink.
In addition, Anne also used thin red ink, green and red coloured pencils and black pencil for her annotations: not ballpoint. Nevertheless, the allegation can still regularly be seen on extreme right-wing websites and elsewhere that the diary of Anne Frank is written in ballpoint pen. <<

Based on this erroneous allegation, I can only assume that the rest of your post is also a steaming pile of crap. Thank you and have a nice day.
