I've been thinking about it and it's [[clarified]] itself for me and I wanted to further engage you on this subject of this [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bob_Guccione Rob Guccioni], that is his name. I saw him on television this week and he was talking about his [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Penthouse_(magazine) Penthouse empire] and I realize what I direct against him is not so much [[anger]] at him, but the anger that I have towards a [[force]] that is militating against our [[children]]. It's not a -- certainly it's not a personal anger against Bob Guccioni. I don't have to [[read]] anything he writes, or prints.
