Things I learned from the VP debate
It turns out that I must be out of touch with progressive politics in this country. John Edwards clarified a few points for me that I didn't fully grasp beforehand:
1) Mortal threats against Iran are the best way to deescalate that country's nuclear ambitions.
2) The Israeli people's right to defend themselves appears to be of the blank-check variety. This is something Israelis seem always to have in common with us, the American people, though the right to self defense of the rest of the world's six billion people is somewhat less clear. See point 1).
3) Marriage is between a man and a woman. And my shirt today is blue. Difference is, I can change my shirt.
