Perhaps giving straight answers to softball questions would remove any ambiguity going forward. It's worth a try, wouldn't you agree?
For example, we can walk back every response you've given in this thread, to anything, to a single stock remark. You agree with whatever your guys are doing, and disagree with whomever you think their guys are, and what they are doing - even if they happen to be doing the same things..which is your standard retort to anything that might be brought to your attention.
We're not doing that, and if we are doing that it's a good thing.
If it's not a good thing it might still not be a bad thing.
If it's a bad thing the other guys are doing it too.
There is no underlying principled objection to anything. You're exactly who I think you are. Can you understand how that might seem like idiocy to others? Think of how you're certain that the dems are doing that too..and how you think of them. It's like watching a child get into a fight over a toy, and deciding at some point that they'd rather burn that toy to ash than let the other kid play with it.
If you want to condemn something, then do so. Condemn it when the other guy does it, and condemn it when your guy does it. Condemnation without integrity is pointless bickering. Be comfortable enough in your own condemnation that it extends to your own heroes. Do you think that's good advice?
