First let me say that the FReepers are a great bunch of people. Of course they are, they are conservatives. But you see that poses a problem from the get go. As conservatives we tend to be independent, free thinking, to take matters into our own hands, to lead rather than follow. When you have a house full of such people there are bound to be those that disagree with what you are doing, which is fine, but I think it would do us all well to keep in mind that some of us do one thing well, some of us do another thing well and we need to have respect enough for each other to allow each person to do what it is that he or she does well or is able to do.
I agree that there are issues far more important than a cheating Presidental Nominee, however, the implications of a cheating President are pretty profound when you think about it and it IS important, and it needs to be acknowledged and addressed.
Of course it is not going to change the outcome of the debate, and probably not the outcome of the election, but in the circles that believe in right and wrong, we believe that Kerry needs to PERSONALLY acknowledge what he did and apologize to President Bush, the debate committee and the people.
No one can be allowed to think that they are above the rules. I am not, you are not and he should not be either.
I feel like, if he is not then why the hell should I be?? It would make my life a whole lot easier!!
