35. Look, for those who cannot wrap their heads around her NUANCE, I cannot help them.
They are childlike and simplistic, and no amount of arguing with people who cannot see the big picture or take the larger view is going to change the minds of those who just don't have the capacity to absorb the argument.

Joe Wilson, husband of Valerie Plame, who is ardently opposed to our adventures in Iraq, supports HILLARY CLINTON for PRESIDENT.

I suggest you find his endorsement and read it, it gives one a sense of the LARGER issues that people are so willing to ignore whilst eagerly playing a GOTCHA game.

Don't tell me I should be impressed with Obama because he made a speech, but wasn't in a position to actually hear the arguments, to include the classified briefings, and cast a vote. It does NOT and will not move me. See, he didn't have to VOTE on that, either. And when he was in a position to cast yes or no votes on tough issues, he ducked. I agree with John Edwards, that you aren't sent to represent a constituency to parse and two-step. You're sent to state your position.

Your mileage obviously varies about who you want to support, and that's fine. I really don't care who you vote for. But just because you don't agree, saying that I am "not making any sense" is just a horseshit little 'dig.' It doesn't hit the mark, but the 'attempt' is....noted.
