It was a non issue when the right made it an issue, and it is a non issue now, but both sides are making it an issue and creating more antagonism towards the other party.

I fall into the game as easily as anyone, but then all of a sudden mid sentence I see the bullshit for what it is and realize this is the game the politicians play to take heat and focus off of what maybe truly going on behind those meetings and being added to bills.

So we'll focus more on this non issue for a few days, instead of say the fines for obscenity being raised or some other bill being passed that truly does affect us.
Alright then. Now, I can (again) say I agree with you. It's just all partisan crap with no real meaning. As we seem to both recognize the hypocrisy on both sides only serves to incite the partisan base and get people talking on the cocktail party (and message board) circuit.

Although, probably not surprising to you, I really don't care much about the fines for obscenity either way.
