30. LOL... That's all I need to know.
I may not like Clinton as much as Obama... and perhaps even by a great deal, but this has nothing to do with my being 'comfortable' with "other people's decisions".

In fact, let me tell you something about "comfortable";

Being "comfortable" was how so many people let Bush get away with a completely illegal and immoral invasion of another country. They were "comfortable" enough with the idea of invading a country that neither attacked nor threatened us in any way, and did nothing to report the facts, vote against it, or raise their voices in protest, and now we are minus over 4000 good young men and women, over half a TRILLION dollars and counting, and all of our national esteem.

Being "comfortable" is what allowed this administration illegally wiretap Americans in clear violation of the Bill of Rights.

Being "comfortable" allowed for Americans and other innocent people to be held without trial and tortured for years.

Being "comfortable" got us to $4/gallon gas.

Being "comfortable" has put our economy on the verge of total collapse, left more children and families in poverty than in decades, seen literacy decline, infant mortality rise, and the dream of America dissolve for millions of hope filled people right before their eyes.

So if I'm not "comfortable" it's because I belong here pushing on the 'net and in RL to bring the reality of what's been going on to as many others as I can, make them "uncomfortable", and get them to act to save this nation from disaster before it's too late.

Now, if you're "comfortable" with letting everything go to hell just because you have a vindictive streak over Hillary Clinton, who, no matter how, at what angle, and with whatever microscope, telescope, or kaleidoscope you look at it, is an infinitely better choice for president than Grandpa Neo-con McCain, Then you are the one, just like all the other sheeple out there who are "comfortable" with the world going to hell on a whim, who doesn't belong in politics at all.


You may be "comfortable" with McCain, but I'm not. Keep stating that here though, and we shan't need suffer each-other long.
