Yes, it was a personal attack. But as the President of the United States, 
he is in the public eye and is often held to a higher standard than most 
people. Larry was trying to say that he hasn't any respect for Bush's 
opinion, even though (or especially because) he's our president and yet he 
could make a mistake like that. It was a side comment, it was his opinion 
of the President. It was not meant to be a defense of his position.

But the point is, was he attacking someone on this list personally? No. So 
this is not grounds to throw him off the list.

If we are going to throw people off for stating their opinions of public 
figures, we're going to have to throw a lot of people off this list. Where 
do we stop?

Michael, you want to weigh in on this?
