Given the truth of my statement re a leary public, it would still be a heavy handed blow to insinuate something like that. A man, or woman can take a lot of speculation about a lot of things. Nonetheless, in Rush's case it is something that would devastate his image.
I may not agree with what you say, but I will defend your right to say it, as the phrase goes.
Your speculation, if made only to hurt Rush, is "reprehensible"- Barney Frank pronuniciation. I wonder what your motive is - I mean REALLY- what it is.
My "speculation," as you call it, was not in any way, shape or form made to hurt Rush. Quite the opposite! As I got the sense that he wanted to go further and reveal something else, I was struck with concern and care for Rush and the advancement of the ideals we (supposedly, in this forum) share.
