It is your opinion that expressing my opinion of this woman is 'ugly and self-righteous'.

I'll tell you what it is: Deserved.

This woman should recognize that she's either a 'gold-digger' or just as nasty a piece of work as Rush. In fact, I'm sure she does, so I can't see any harm in giving an opinion she herself might agree with... just not out loud.

As for your concern over 'appearances', there's a word for those who would admonish me for stating an opinion they agree with: 'Dishonest'. We should be able to make our opinions and observations known when we want to. In this case, there really isn't much of a reason for me not to because anyone reading this, including Rush's fans, would likely agree that she either really likes/loves him or that she has ulterior motives.

It's really an inescapable dichotomy.
