   No, not at all. At least in my case (even though I'm not a lefty; I only   
   play one on usenet).

   I think you're totally misreading me. Rush's stated opinion is that   
   people in his current position should be locked up and the key thrown   
   away. Rush's *actual* opinion, however, is that he can release some   
   story to the press about how his freakin' *maid* took advantage of his   
   addiction, in order to bend public opinion. If Barbara Streisand had   
   done what he's done, Rush would have been on record saying she was just   
   another reckless liberal.   
      
   That's why I say it's entertaining.

   That's the second most stupid thing I've read tonight on usenet. The   
   first is Cap'n TrVth, so don't think you're off the hook.
