I was making a point about hypocrisy, that's all. I see it again in Rick's posting of the email from his friend. His purpose, I imagine, was to see this friend trashed by the group, which happened, very predictably. Then when he's got others to do what he truly wants to do himself, he surfaces and says he still "loves" the friend. It's a move straight out of the Karl Rove playbook. Get someone else to do the dirty work, stay seemingly above the fray, and emerge with your own reputation enhanced. As I said before, Rick should be a political operative. He knows how to do dirty tricks.
