What I hate about this is what you’re saying is that people should censor themselves from saying their true feelings or distance themselves from people who share similar feelings to win an election...
I hate that with a passion. I want a politician that speaks from the heart not some fake and phony politician that will say or do whatever it takes to win...
The Bush stuff wasn’t asinine at all. All of it was completely legitimate. Show me something that was said about Bush that wasn’t true? The stuff about Obama is all bigoted and racist BS.
I'm not saying that at all. If one believes that Bush committed treason, they can certainly have that opinion.
But plenty of Dems did not believe that and when they did not speak up, they were allowing silence to be an assent.
And as an aside, Bush was a good man. He made mistakes but he did not drag us into war because he was a traitor. That is just plain ridiculous.
