I liked the column; his point is that this woman who was being promoted as another squeaky-clean Fundie turns out -- surprise -- to have a dark side (as do most people, tho' the Fundies don't like to talk about that).
OK. I can see that. I guess I failed to see that at first because I don't really remember this woman being promoted as some kind of great religious person when the story broke. Granted, I didn't read every article that was written about the incident.
I wasn't surprised when she wrote a book about it, however. And while my initial reaction was one of "oh, well- good for you for admitting it" when she revealed she was a meth-head- I can see now that it may have been a calculated move to promote her book.
But, mostly it left me cold because, as Rod pointed out, this guy's a brutal freak who hurt a lot of people.
