Your problem is the same problem these Senators have. You think this matter, like all deeply moral matters, is some kind of political toy. It’s not. It’s the equivalent of a rag soaked in a deadly pathogen. You don’t mess around with it. You incinerate it immediately. Which they could have easily done.
But frankly, I wouldn’t expect anything else from you.
I don’t think deeply moral matters are a political toy, but if you think this issue could have been extinguished inside a committee’s use of Roberts Rules of Orders, then your are more naive than I thought you were.
And that’s saying something.
And another thing that is aggrevating as hell about you: you assume that anyone who decides on a different TACTIC than you MUST BE subversively hoping for a DIFFERENT OUTCOME.
Be WISE AS SERPENTS and gentle as doves.......you should pay attention to part A of that advise.
