Maybe we can all agree that corruption must be fought, politicians are corrupt, and the current system isn’t perfect.
Instead of attacking each other, we would be better off discussing the problem and finding the best path forward.
The best path forward is to go back and repeal the 17th amendment.
I’d love to discuss the problem. Unfortunately, when you have the angry peanut gallery tossing horse chips for bringing up the fallacies in repealing the 17th, it’s very difficult to do so.
As an aside, the sad part about central va’s boorish and ungentlemanly behavior is that other than this issue, I’d be surprised if we disagreed on much of anything else. If you guys want to alienate other Conservatives and die on the battlefield for an issue that isn’t likely to go further than just internet discussions anytime soon, and firing against folks who agree with you on perhaps 95%, that’s your choice. Frankly, I think it’s sort of stupid.
