::::You're certainly correct that the Kerry article isn't a direct parallel to this one.  The Kerry article reports on flat-out lies that were told about Kerry.  In many countries he would have been able to win a defamation lawsuit about the statements quoted in our article.  (American law provides a high degree of protection to people who make false statements about elected officials.)  Thus, our article gives greater currency to lies about Kerry.  By contrast, no one has pointed to any lies about Rick Santorum that would be squelched or even given less currency by the deletion/merger/renaming/whatevering of this article.  Compared to the swiftboating of John Kerry, the use of Santorum's name in a nondefamatory way is minor.  As for Streisand, if some Limbaugh nastiness about her gets the level of attention that's been given to "frothy mix", start the appropriate article.  When the deletionists come howling for your head, or at least for deletion, please drop me a note on my talk page so I can prove my integrity by opposing deletion.  t c
