133. I see. Everybody's does it, so it's ok.

And all problems are too big to think about. Fair enough, but there is no argument there to address. It's just rationalizing.

But yes, I do expect standard bearers to "stick their heads out." That's the deal. They are the ones asking for my support, not the other way around. And they would be risking far, far less than the average soldier in Iraq.

And perhaps a call for simple honesty and democracy "would mean some kind of huge societal revolution," but it's one that's long overdue. I'll let you know how it turns out.
