For or against this war: Yes or no?
Without the caveats, without the tortured explanations. The "yes, but" or the "no, but let me explain."
Simple responses.

I could be wrong, but I really think people value conviction. Sometimes, even when they disagree with that conviction.
I suspect most admire a strong point of view regardless.
Perhaps it's a good thing I'm not running for Congress.

Because you know what my platform would be? I'm not bringing home the bacon. I'm not building you a bridge or a hospital or a school.
Nothing. Nada. Zippo.

But imagine if every politician did that. If they stopped trying to buy your vote with programs you don't need, but with principles you do.
I'll tell you what: It'd make for interesting races and even better debates.

Licenses for people who shouldn't be here is nuts. Anyone who disagrees with me is nuts.
It'd be interesting, I guarantee you that. And I'm sure I'll be called a nut. But better a nut who gets to the point, than a nut who doesn't even have one.
So do you agree with me?
