I'd love to wash my hands of "The Bickerings" here, but I can't let them get away with bashing POTUS and smearing his nominee, all the while claiming that "they're the base and that they're owed better."
I must be slipping a little... I can usually spot the doom & gloomers three threads away.
Ditto, onyx. With some of the blind attacks against Harriet Miers here (and the President, of course), I am amazed that any of the doom and gloomers really think that they're better than anybody.
I look at a person's character to determine what I think about him or her. And I see character in the President, and very little, if any in those who hate him. And yet they think they're superior.
It's an amazing phenomenon, onyx.
