Not like anything posted here about Webb really requires a defense or could be defended. Remembrances have been largely positive by even those who had minor disagreements with him...and all pretty much indisputable. Most of the wailing and gnashing of teeth has been virtue signaling and using his death as cover to take taking cheap shots at others...not our finest hour.

On the other hand, as noted, Webb loved the fray and instigating spirited discussion (having documented 6-8 different screen names at one time with markedly different personalities for each to engender such)...so he probably is enjoying it. He was a unique guy and probably (at least in PARF) the strongest/brightest and most prolific poster with his political viewpoint for decades. He was a baller and will be missed.
