Considering who they ran this past time, I would have ranted, as well, if 
I had the time to formulate a good rant on the subject.  (I'm not as 
familiar with the subject of the LP as Smith, though, so I'd give whatever 
he had to say more weight than whatever I might say.)

I find Smith's style to be a little irritating, but that's just me.
