The impression that I get from your post is that your upset the "RW" isn't playing a game on your home turf. Screw that, I say; they're not obligated to. You don't get to decide what all the issues are in an election. (For instance, no one of importance has decided your "50 million Americans don't have health insurance" business isn't an issue because it simply isn't true). This reminds me of Obama's tendency to dismiss any legitimate criticism of him as "distractions," presumably from the business of electing him President.


If people are alarmed because Obama is an adherent to a heretical pseudo-religion that holds that God's central purpose is to destroy white people... well, they have a right to be. They have a similar right to be alarmed by McCain seeking the endorsement of an anti-Catholic bigot -- but again, the two issues are not equivalent in their details, which is why people are still more concerned about the former than the latter. But you don't get to dismiss the concerns of a relatively large number of people by pegging it as a phony non-issue cooked up to distract people from what you've decided are "real" issues.


So if you're not alarmed, why make an issue of it? This is something like the second time in the relatively few days you've been here that you've said you oppose X but want everyone who disagrees with you to suffer X anyway. This is such a small, petty way to think and feel and live.
