One Has To Wonder

I continue to be surprised at the levels at which people will stoop to get their point across. In every policital year it seems that people lose not only their minds but their sense of decency. While I have no problem with disagreeing on the issues I have a major problem with name calling, parodies etc., of the candidate and his/her views. When people resort to ad hominem attacks it almost makes you feel like you want to take a shower. This is a perfect example of the kind of nastiness that replaces intellectual discourse and civility. The worse part is Hamsher's hubris. And if that wasn't bad enough how about trashing an elected officials campaign office because he supports equality for "all" Americans.
