Is the controversy over Geraldine Ferraro's comments overblown?
  • Do I really want to go there

    Did I really understand the implications of what I wrote? Oh No! Where do I think judgement comes from? Does it arise, ab initio, from a vacuous space? Does it spring like Athena from the forehead of Zeus, fully armored?

    I would call that a softball pitch and I'm looking for you to hit it out of the park. I'm expecting the badass Tejas Smith, not the coy questioning Smith, or Sacharrine Smith the faux Obama alcolyte (when you disappeared for a bit I was afraid that all that sweetness had rotted your veins).

    Do you still think the constitution doesn't matter? That we don't need an advocate for it? We may have already crossed the Rubicon. It's only a republic if we can keep it.
