Hi Earl,

I understand what you are saying, you addressed the issue right up front. 
You guys are attacking him in this echo for things he says in other echos.

I disagree with that approach.  It's no different than watching those hens 
on "The View".  It's just wrong - and on many different levels.

My high school daughter is experiencing some of these issues at her school. 
Cyber bullies frequently blast horrible things, including recorded audio & 
video of kids in her school and on blog about lies & inuendos.  At face 
value, the general perception is - those who participate in such things are 
no different.

Don't misunderstand me, I'm not saying "Poor Bob" - I'm saying
this echo is 
an echo about Bob rather than "political disorder".

I'm sure I'll be attacked for making these statements (already have been 
called a liberal for making that statement, don't know why), and you will 
probably attempt to explain your position while entrenching your paradigm, 
but I thought it would be prudent to point out the observation anyway.
