| 70. I think they meant "rationale", though it still doesn't make a whole lot of sense |
|
But more importantly, I think I now see where we differ. I'll agree with "black mark", but don't mind taking it further. I think saying a vote for the IWR was a "black mark" is like saying extraordinary rendition, gitmo and torture are "black marks" on this administration. Shit, it was the same in 2004 and I sucked it up and voted for Kerry (though I sure as hell didn't vote for him in the primary, even though by the time my state got around to voting the media had told the voters their choice was Kerry), so please calm down with the name calling, insinuations about my thought processes, etc. People take their support for a candidate too personally - if I say something about a candidate, it's not about their supporters. I want discussion, not flag waving or name calling.
