Maybe I'm reading between the lines and if I'm wrong, please enlighten me. Sounds like none of us should be passing judgement on those we disagree with. I could be completely off base, but you've come across (to me anyway) as taking offense to someone calling our political adversaries "dirtbags".

IF i'm right about that, then sorry dude you are wrong. Anyone, fucking anyone who will use peoples color, religion, sexual orientation or identity, gender, or political beliefs as political tools to win elections are dirtbags. I'm sorry you can't see that. They are. They are absolutely welcome to their opinions and I welcome the debate. Until their opinions affect actual human beings, which is absolutely going on.

And to compare Joe to these people is absolutely disgusting and insulting.
