"Furthermore, to use so trivial an issue as an important campaign point is to intentionally and deliberately degrade the cognnitive quality of the electoral process and to substitute mudslinging histrionics for the democratic process. Why anyone would want to do so great a disservice to the American democracy escapes me, but it does not reflect well on their understanding of the Jeffersonian ideals of an informed electorate, nor, actually, of their patriotic intelligence.

Yes, I remember some of your comments at the last election, about Bush....

You know, if you establish that it is ok for ONE side to use such tactics, how can you complain when they are then used AGAINST that side?
