Another Jordan that I admire. In JBP's case, I don't think he's sociopathic, but rather, got mired in a contentious relationship with society and the media. If you watch his older lectures, before he got put in the crucible, he was an eclectic and deep thinking college professor. Makes me sad, the journey he was taken on; although I suppose what he got from it might have been worth it. He'd probably say that it was.

The old Arabic saying I read somewhere: take what you want, and pay for it. I don't know how it parses in Arabic, but the duality of it in English is profound.
