But Tim, don't you see?  That's how double standards work.

Ted,
   If a few posts pointing out how ridiculously blind it is for any
liberal to defend Bill Clinton means I'm "OBSessed"--then what are the
folks who post daily--sometimes hourly-- about Wilson/CC etc. etc. ad
nauseum? 
 " POSessed?"     <http://www.smileycentral.com/?partner=ZSzeb001> Cool

I avoided going there, but it did occur to me that Tim's previous
rantings on this subject seemed a bit obsessive, an obsession I had had
quite enough of during Clinton's impeachment.  But this is what makes
the list more valuable, perhaps, that no one can dictate what is
newsworthy or not.  Even with all its faults, often V2020 and its
members offer a more newsworthy view of certain events than the so
called "news" we get in the sound bites offered in the monetarily driven
"news" media. 

One of our City Council members commented in the Daily News that V2020
was not a good source of factual info.  Actually, I think there are so
many lurkers waiting to pounce on BS on the list that the false stories
get corrected rather often, and much valuable info is offered with links
to sources tha! t are reliable. 

I think V2020 does quite well as an open unmoderated list serve, though
the potential is there for it to self destruct if a large number of
people went off the deep end "spamming" the list. 

OK, maybe "Naked At Dennys" is a trivial post.  Mea culpa. 

Ted
