Re: John Judge, RIP

Charles, this is very sad news indeed. We had the pleasure of working briefly with John while he served as Rep. Cynthia McKinney’s aide in Congress. He would occasionally come by the office and I recall being so enormously impressed by his fierce intelligence and his great courage. In a world dominated by 20-something staffers who in the main were convinced they ruled the world but whose arrogance was only matched by their ignorance, you can imagine what a treat it was when John Judge stopped by. He was a giant and he will be greatly missed. I rue that I had lost touch with him over the past several years.

Here is a fascinating and wide-reaching interview with John Judge discussing his life, the Pentagon and the war machine, the police state, and much more. John was a seeker and held views on events like 9/11 and the Kennedy assassination that lead some to ignore anything he said. What a sad and one-dimensional world it is for those who discount anyone with whom they cannot agree in total.

The Best of Daniel McAdams
