Politics as usual

[unixronin]

Or, I'm fine with political commentary, political discussion, political argument, even political evangelism.  But I'm getting really tired of all the unfounded political cheap shots.

Come on, people.  Isn't there anything positive that you can say for YOUR candidate?

My candidate meets all the essential requirements for president. They can fog a mirror, have a core body temperature around 99F and are a natural born citizen of the USA over the age of 40. They even have the sterling quality on not needing a minder to tell them "Breath in, breath out". Unfortunately I am positive that they are a politician and therefore likely to act against my interests.

I believe that's referred to as "damning with faint praise". :)

That would be the idea. Also I haven't really decided who I'm voting for. I do know who I am voting against though. I also haven't decided yet if I am going to vote against both of the major party candidates or just one yet.

is that better or worse than praising with faint damns?

Seriously, I'd have to say worse. It's the difference between trying to compliment but finding very little good to say, or trying to condemn but finding very little bad.
