29. That was hardly just a meek and gentle "opinion"
It was a flat-out statement that anyone even considering voting for any of those candidates is deeply sick and morally ugly.

When someone fires an emotionally charged shot, one should expect some resistance. The act of firing such self-aggrandizing "I'm spiritually superior to you curs" broadsides is hardly neighborly, either.

The candidates are to be forever banned from the society of decent folk and the supporters should be greeted with bold-faced pronouncements.

I've got an idea, how about a Scarlet Letter on our profile? Maybe "war-loving baby-killer moron" should be affixed to anyone who doesn't dedicate all waking hours to hammering this one point to distraction? I was vocally anti-war, worked at the grassroots level, contacted my Rep and both Senators, went to rallies, spent endless time trying to sway individuals and am saddened and angered by the whole thing.

Bobby Kennedy was counsel for Joe McCarthy at the Army-McCarthy hearings. Dean either dodges the gun control issue or is a gun lover, and he supports the death penalty. That must make him a murder and mayhem fan, huh?

Do you know what was offered to the Senators behind closed doors as "proof"? I don't. I don't believe they're free to say, either.
