dj and i had this discussion yesterday, i agree. rather than railing against freepers and potential voters for their REACTION to the story [OMG you stupid PAWNS OF THE MEDIA, etc] , how about holding accountable the politician that permitted the events to be used against him. fair or not, it’s LIFE, that perceptions will govern situations and he is being perceived as a flake or up to no good, because he wasn’t savvy enough to see how this could be used against him.
That sounds like blaming the victim for being the victim.
