a recent email to someone
one more thing i wanted to ask you… cause i think you’re a pretty strong obama supporter, right?
so you know how there’s this general sentiment out there that one of the things that makes obama cool is that he hasn’t succumbed to the typical politician’s “saying negative shit about your opponent to boost your own campaign”?
well… it seems to me that the most common way people express their support for obama on their blogs (particularly on tumblr) is to dig up and pick on every little thing that mccain did to make him look stupid — check out how old this guy looks in this photo, check out what he said in this video when taken out of context, etc. etc.
to me this always felt somewhat hypocritical. do you feel the same way?
