Call me cynical, but I'd not be at all surprised to learn that this was being done with the tacit (if not explicit) approval of Maria G.

Notice that all of it is supportive of *her* -- it's things that she'd probably like to say, but can't.

I wouldn't be at all surprised to see her quite directly involved in this. Just sayin....

Meant "Justin." Either way, yikes!
