- This was posted email by Chaney to Humphrey, right? If that's what you're
- referring to, it was far too disgusting and perverse to merit any
- sort of response. Besides, it was email, and therefore not necessarily
- appropriate for public consumption.

- That's pretty disgusting. It's deserving of condemnation, if in
- fact that's what was actually said.

- I'm sure you believe that only "anti-choicers" post offensive
- material. Not that I care what you think, James, but I'm more
- than willing to criticize other pro-lifers, and I've done it
- on several occasions. The next time I see something offensive
- written by a pro-choicer I'll be looking for your critical response.
- After all, you wouldn't want to be a hypocrite, right?
