Also, Neal: see, that's EXACTLY what I mean. Using the "but the dems did it first" excuse to act like that. That's exactly what I was saying - sure, I'll be the first to enthusiastically agree that a lot of leftists are a real bunch of whiners and snap uncontrollably when provoked. But is that really an excuse to act just as bad? That's very immature and, in my eyes, even worse than just acting like that due to being upset.
In the end, I think the problem is that I hate sore losers. That's why tonight I far preferred McCain's speech and was really annoyed at the boo-ers in the crowd. He was really gracious and if nothing else, he took defeat with honour and broke out not into partisan cliches but into a real unifying rhetoric, which is what I value most when it comes to places as polarized politically as the US. Now I wish his followers took the hint, seriously.
In any case, I do want a couple days' break. All this has given me a headache.  |
Sorry brother, but from your posts, you do not live here, and cannot vote here. So maybe you should not take it personally when folks rip on you. Needless to say, if skybird were to tell me we should/should not vote for BHO, I take it with a grain of salt. Cool your jets and pray for sanity....
