As I have stated elsewhere on this forum about George Will, Mr.Bill Jun 2014 #12

Very good point. yardwork Jun 2014 #17

KnR.... Great post! alittlelark Jun 2014 #5

I really, really hope you sent this to him. riderinthestorm Jun 2014 #6

Sounds to me like George Will is actually "for" rape. He probably had a encounter in college Lint Head Jun 2014 #11

Sadly that is a distinct possibility. demgurl Jun 2014 #13

George Will probably never got the kind of date he wanted. lunatica Jun 2014 #14

I can't believe he has a daughter! n/t demgurl Jun 2014 #15

I think he's inadvertantly doing something good mythology Jun 2014 #16

That was my reaction, too -- the bright side of George Will! Jim Lane Jun 2014 #18

I wasn't sure if I agreed he is inadvertently doing something good, but..... demgurl Jun 2014 #19

I hope you're right. I'd certainly like to think so. n/t nomorenomore08 Jun 2014 #25

"I contend the numbers are too low, Mr. Will" Shampoobra Jun 2014 #20

Yes! demgurl Jun 2014 #21

"the real numbers could be mind blowing" Shampoobra Jun 2014 #23

And that is my main point about all of this - demgurl Jun 2014 #24

Will is a pompous little man who thinks he is an expert on all things. yellowcanine Jun 2014 #22

"Most if all he seems to lack any compassion for anyone not as lucky in life as he is." nomorenomore08 Jun 2014 #26

Yes but Will brays about it and condescends more than most. yellowcanine Jun 2014 #27

Same here. He should go back to fondling his vintage Honus Wagner cards. n/t nomorenomore08 Jun 2014 #28

Not a very good mind picture there...Ew. yellowcanine Jun 2014 #29

I'm certainly not the first to use some version of that joke. nomorenomore08 Jun 2014 #30

Very Nice letter. Too Nice. 2banon Jun 2014 #34

I understand I was being very nice. demgurl Jun 2014 #35

I understand. 2banon Jun 2014 #36

Problem is I don't think he will ever get that. demgurl Jun 2014 #37
