- Since the only support you've given is the "Eagleburger" joke, I
- do believe you have failed do demonstrate your assertion. Care to
- explain how the Clinton/Kennedy joke could be called PC by any
- stretch of the imagination? (What does Ted Kennedy have that
- Bill Clinton wishes he had? A dead girlfriend)
-
- Note also that the Eagleburger joke had the lowest rating of the 22
- jokes. If you don't like the joke quality, submit something better.
- I don't write them.

- Another loaded question. I haven't "admitted" being wrong because
- I was not wrong. You, however, were wrong. Repeatedly.

- * Sol Wachtler is not a Democrat, but a Republican
- * Bob Packwood did not commit all accused assaults 10 years ago,
- that was Inouye
- * Bob Packwood was rated highly by NOW and other feminist groups
- yet you claim he's being strung up for being "non-PC"
- * r.h.f. is not PC. R.h.f. is merely r.h.f. From the complaints
- I get about jokes offensive to lesbians, Somalis, African-
- Americans, and gay men, I can assure you I'm offending
- everyone equally.
-
- You have a really bad case of projection, Phil. Get help
- before you explode.
