[Romulus]

It makes perfect sense, when you consider that the First Lady is first lady to ALL Americans. You don't admire Laura Bush?

She is the earth mother. A corner of my home is reserved to her cult, which I observe by the tending of a sacred flame that is never allowed to expire.

Yassir Arafat, whom someone you admire, John Paul II, has defended as being "humiliated."

Dear sinkspur, recover your sanity!

Snide, indeed, dear Romulus. John Paul II's defense of Yassir Arafat, a known terrorist, troubles me deeply.

You question my sanity, dear Romulus, while defending JP II's concern for the "humiliation" of Arafat. A known terrorist.

Odd, indeed.
