Reply #10: I don't know why it is so hard to figure out

That it's not about Simpson.

Just because I oppose Alan Simpson does not mean I agree with every attack on him.

Like this

"Alan Simpson is a fucking freeloader because he was in Congress a long time"

Okay, just like Byrd, Kennedy, Biden, Harkin, Kerry, and Feingold.

"Alan Simpson wants to raise taxes, that a$$hat."

Uh, I want to raise taxes, and so does Obama.

"Listen Simpson, you dickwad, just because Congress spent all our social security money on foreign aid, doesn't mean you can fix this Ponzi scheme at our expense."

Uh, the deficit came from tax cuts to the rich, but Mr. Angry Senior is all angry at the idea of increasing taxes.

Finally, should ad hominem arguments laced with profantiy take the place of facts and reason? I feel sorta all alone in this, but I don't think so.
