7. not an asinine comment at all |

In fact, if we had a legitimate president, duly elected and generally agreed to have been duly elected, and furthermore, genuinely interested in doing the job and having a wit of intelligence with which to do the job- we'd have someone who'd know how to bring the country together, and generate the support needed to resolve the issue.
