"Does this button upset Democrats, or is their whinning about a couple seconds in a Bush ad yet another case of selective indignation, AKA hypocricy?"

I see, so because I have not complained about a button I have not seen (whict BTW, I still have not), do not wear and have not evaluated... It is somehow selective indignation to complain about what I have seen and do judge to be offensive? This is supposed to refute my point that your pissing about what a bad guy Kerry is does not defend the incorrectness of the campaign add, nor Bush for running it?

This is dancing on the edge of arguing with a post.

"Kerry and the Democrats are trying to frame the political discussion in such a way that any discussion of his dismal record is an attack on his patriotism."

Listen up: I made no claims about what Kerry and his crew are/are not saying or are/are not trying to do. Its like I'm telling you the sky is blue and your saying its not because Joe Pinkerton is a nasty jerk and he said the sky was blue. My claim: The use of 9/11 imagery, and the way it was done was tasteless and was a bald attempt to capitalize on the emotions surrounding that event.

I repeat my original statement in the face of your partisan attack-dog web-log scripted mindless spoon-fed incessant nattering about something that is a complete red-herring:

If all your arguments boil down to: "bu-bu-bu-but they are BADBADBADBADBAD people mo-mo-mommy!" then you have nothing to say and your responses to this issue are simply partisan, predictable and poorly considered.

So are you a partisan thrall, or do you actually have an opinion or argument that does not involve bitching about how bad somebody else is? Nobody is made right by the sins of another- I thought you were a Big Person- all growed up, and that you knew that.

Again: This is like arguing with a post.
