skippy, the insightful kangaroo....
It's good to know that we non-aligned interests here at Wampum are not alone in finding the Clinton-Obama infighting rather revolting. From my favorite capital eschewing marsupial:
who needs repubbblicans when we can fight with ourselves? or, can't we all just get along? we have said several times before we don't have a dog in the clinton-obama fight.but we have to say that we are most unsettled by manifestations of that fight that have been creeping more and more into otherwise reasonable people who write here in blogtopia, and yes, we coined that phrase.
we don't mind when bloggers, who have chosen one side or another, point out various insufficiencies and hypocrisies on the part of the opposing candidate; that is, after all, why bloggers blog.
but as of late people whom we admire and respect have begun silly sniping towards each other, simply because of what has been said on blogs about the two dem candidates.
and folks aren't just pointing out bad logic or inconsistent arguments; there are a lot of personal digs being thrust about. things have gotten so bad that it's almost as if we don't even need the hardly-ever-right wing bloggers as targets for our wrath. it seems that we'll all be happy hating other progressives, simply because of whom they endorse for the dem nominee.
Eric and I are down to our last two episodes from the seventh season of the West Wing. If the melodrama in the lefty blogosphere doesn't end soon, I'm pulling out seasons one through six and a pox on both campaigns' houses.
