FWIW, I don't think you're trying to mislead anyone; I believe you to be an honest and forthright person and have never had cause to think otherwise. I can't speak for him, but perhaps snoop doesn't feel you're INTENTIONALLY trying to mislead anyone (though in that case "mislead" is probably not the word I would've used; then again, I'm in no position to articulate his thoughts). I do agree with virtually everything else in his last response to you though (particularly the analysis of the EESC Presidents comments). Your response to Camilla did feel to me a lot like an attempt to vindicate what Rush said on its face, with the mention of context only briefly noted in the course of that. I feel obligated to respond, sooner or later, to any posts in my thread about Peter King and his hearings, but otherwise, since I'm getting married the day after tomorrow, a week long moratorium on politics sounds like a good idea. Sorry for the frustration; if it's any consolation I'm a little frustrated with some of these exchanges as well, though not because of you.
