Thanks for this--I wondered what had happened but my ridiculous embarrassment squick wouldn't let me look.
I wonder that folks seem to confuse the RL actors with the fanfic actors. I've always assumed (and I know it’s kind of stereotyping) with JA's background, that he was nowhere near shouting distance of liberal, with all shades of meaning in that word. I've always assumed both of them were politically conservative seeing what part of the States they're from. Certainly, more conservative than fans would wish.
I guess the fan wanted to ask the question that we've all wondered this season but it's probably not ever going to be a good idea to ask it in front of a bunch of gun-shy fangirls, or of people you don’t know. I've been in the audience when someone asks a question that brings a collective gasp from the crowd. The asker is either clueless or very brave....
