I tripped over the same "legitimate" and "necessary" bullshit line everyone else did. But let's focus on some of the other things Peters said, and who the audience for those remarks might be. Is that audience going to listen to the likes of us at DU? Fat chance. But quote Peters' comments about the Constitution and immeasurable damage to them and see if you can't get the rusty machinery of their brains clanking back into activity.
