One thing I like about you, even when I disagree (which is often enough) 
is the way you keep your principles consistent.  Most people who call 
themselves conservatives will inveigh against government regulation except 
when it comes to sex.  Or they will complain loudly about bad taste, etc. 
in the media, but will never support the regulation of private business 
that would be necessary to do something about it.  Even when I disagree 
with you, you have integrity.
