- Actually, you saw a rerun as I recall seeing this particular episode a few
- months ago.
-
- Secondly, it was FLASH Rambo.

- I liked it a lot also. It also made a good point with respect to freedom of
- speech and equal time.
-
- While I felt that they made 'Flash' to be even more right of Rush (if such a
- thing is possible), I believe that they were trying to exemplify the extremes
- on both sides (left and right).
-
- I was particularly impressed as to the solution that this episodes writers came
- up with and believe that it exemplified the issue of tolerance for both sides
- of an issue.
