This isn't some tax code technicality or budget discrepancy. This isn't just any issue, it's as black and white as they come. There is a very clear right and wrong answer. You can't have it both ways either.

And the very clear right answer is political suicide. So what do you want? A guy who's right on eveything who can't get elected, or one who's right on almost everything who can?

Harsh reality time: the problem isn't the politicians. It's the American People. I'm sure some of you yanks will get all defensive about it, but when three quarters of the population thinks gay marriage is evil and 45% of the population thinks Genesis is literal truth, you have a fucking problem and it goes a helluva lot deeper than the political system.
