It is not Leftist conspiracy; it is Leftist outrage at what is perfectly understandable. The outrage makes it sound like it was not perfectly understandable that people took umbrage at Johnson's flaunting the social mores.

And I am not objecting to some mention of what happened. It would be impossible to make a truthful biographical picture on Johnson and ignore the subject. That is not my point. It is the phoney sanctimony; the phoney judgmental posturing by the announcers of the events. Tell what happened. There is drama enough in the story, without the sanctimony.

And I, though I have no sympathy with Johnson flaunting society, have genuine admiration for Johnson's ability. The sanctimony only tended to diminish Johnson.

We definately agree on the sanctimony of the left. I'll just have to disagree with you about his 'flaunting'.
