I try not to be a partisan. I try to understand what somebody truly means, not look for the gotcha! or blindly defend. I don't always succeed. Sometimes it's my fault; sometimes, the speaker is just too outrageous.
I didn't think I'd see this bit of wisdom topped:
"I will do the diplomacy necessary, and I have heavy cards to play -- I'm not going to lay 'em all out on the table, no future president, no president should negotiate this in public. But let me tell you, I've got big cards to play to bring people to understand the stakes here"
-------------- John Kerry
Who knew Big John was such a poker player.
But then the big daddy of politics preached the following from a church pulpit (thus demonstrating that God is merciful because he wasn't struck down):
"It's wrong to demonize and cartoonize one another, and to ignore evidence, and to make false charges and to bear false witness. Sometimes I think our friends on the other side have become the people of the Nine Commandments."
-------------- Bill Clinton
I guess it takes one to know one, eh perjurer-in-chief?
