I'll tell you what, dig up your post and I'll go through it with my reactions. I did not do this before, as my reaction at the time was to throw up my hands and move on, but if you'd like my reaction, I'll be happy to break it down.

Hi J.C. It seems even mentioning the subject was enough to be offensive, never mind actually taking issue with the presentation as you did. Pointing out that journalists are generally not neutral and in most cases write for reasons other than monetary ones, ie, to promote personal, or social agendas, hardy seems offensive to me. I thought your take on the article was accurate myself. Perhaps you can remember if Sullivan was the journalist that tried to infect then candidate Bush, or was it Dole, with the flu by purposely infecting a door handle? No one else seems to have any idea of what I'm talking about regarding this matter, but I get the impression that it is yet another case of selective memory. If some conservative journalist had done such a thing .....well, can you imagine?
