3. Not stupid - merely cowardly and not on our side. They do exactly what they want to do. nt

6. stupid has nothing to do with it
You can not tell me they and their aides are not perfectly aware of this BS. It is a choice they make over and over not to rock the boat and go up against the corporate media. Save for Alan Grayson I can not think of many with the fortitude to defend the defenseless.

sad.

7. 'politically stupid'
I am not claiming that they and their aides are not perfectly aware of this BS, instead I am claiming that they made the politically stupid and cowardly decision to fold and hide, knowing full well that the charges were another Breitbart scam.

10. If our political leaders are so stupid, why do we keep re-electing them?
What does that say about the electorate?

The media has been telling us for months that incumbants are in great danger in 2010. We'll still re-elect 90% of the ones who are currently in place.

14. I was going to say 15, then I reconsidered
20 would be more realistic.
