Well I will. I *am* horrified by Julius Rosenberg's act. Certainly 
Hitler is number 1 bad guy of this century. But history and all of 
Lenin's other close associates attest that Stalin is number 2.

To work to give the #2 bad guy in the twentieth century access to 
nuclear weapons seems to me to be a horrifying act.
