Vigdor, you are indeed a man of principle.  Personally, the evidence 
of Dole's opportunism - which stretches back across half my lifetime 
and more - is clear enough to me to deny credence to any utterance of 
his, and to focus instead on the political context.

Yes, there is a crying need for leadership to expose the despicable 
degeneracy of the media elite (and their promotion as "art" the work 
of toads like Oliver Stone), but my wariness of critters like Dole 
precedes yours by a mile, and I cannot bring myself to believe that 
anyone currently in a position of power - whether political or 
economic - honestly represents the common interest in ordinary 
decency.  On the contrary, their agenda is - as it always has been - 
social control, and their cynical use of common longings for a 
civilized environment to achieve those ends is as despicable as the 
practices they feign to deplore.
