Well, you're the only rude lunatic I've dealt with in the last week, so it seemed a reasonable guess.
As for the rest of your little screed, if you really think that supporting the Constitution amounts to "new age moralism, conspiracy theories and projectionist straw mans", you really are remarkably Bush-like.
I must say, this campaign has been quite enlightening. I used to believe that modern Republicanism was a social abberation, a sort of blind fanaticism that was alien to the majority of voters. Instead, it seems, far too many were simply waiting until their side came out on top - or their side as they imagined it to be, anyway.
Since Senator Obama has now shown that the Constitution means nothing to him (which is particularly ironic, since he was a Constitutional law professor) it would seem that Democrats have found their own smarter and better-spoken version of George W. Bush. Just remember, when the scandals break and the country is even worse off than it is now: you decided to close your eyes to the early signs of all this. You decided that giving up the Fourth Amendment wasn't such a big deal.
But a little corruption is like a little pregnancy...there's no such thing.
