Re: Bill Clinton's White House: Offensive (none / 0)

Of course my candidate bears responsibility for the war.  Why on Earth would you assume I think otherwise?

Frankly, if this diary said something like, "I can never vote for Hillary because she supported the war," I'd at least understand the sentiment.  I still think the relevant fact is that John McCain is far more likely to get us into the next war than any Democrat, but I'd understand.

However, the argument of this diary is that "I can never vote for Hillary because her husband was a sleaze 10 years ago."  That just shows an inexcusably unserious attitude towards the outcome of this election.  Once again, these votes we cast have consequences for real people, they are not just there so we have a way to vent our personal hangups.
