Conyat, the sender then must be as clueless as me - he’s a African American career DEA agent, preparing for retirement, has complained bitterly to me about the Bush adminstration, is appalled at the situation in Iraq, and would love to see Hillary in office. He dispises Condoleeza Rice and isn’t overly impressed with Obama. We have many, many long late-night conversations about politics and we agree on almost NOTHING, yet we are very close friends and have been for many years. I am sure politics, class and religion didn’t even occur to him when he sent the copy out - to his entire address book. I’m certain it simply struck him the way it did me - as a cute, sweet - if inaccurate - story that perhaps others might enjoy (and it probably didn’t even occur to him to care about the accuracy).
