Thanks for your thoughtful, well-worded comment. Despite my poor wording, then awkward attempt at irony or humor ("I'm usually right"), I think we are in agreement. I strongly support the bill of rights, and the principles underlying the Constitution. Much could be said there. I am not trying to be contentious, and can be wrong or stupid at times, but maybe there is an exception (or penalty) for some intentional lying from a position of trust. Like, a hired lifeguard buying insurance then saying "there are no dangers", when he knows the beach is closed due to an infestation of sharks, pollution, and whirlpools, which he has also just seen. Or maybe that is not called mere speech. Still....
