re: #100 dr. klys

And so it’s totes-great to remove someone from office over that! Fuck, we should just go to campaigning all the time, whether it’s for a recall or the normal one. We’re almost there already.

Look, unless you are your own legislator, expect them to make a choice or two you disagree with.

Basically I’m with you, the recall sucks. However there’s a larger point about pragmatism that is being lost. Rightly or wrongly gun control is the hill that we as liberals keep dying on. It’s our birth control / abortion overreach, the issue where we always know we’re right that that knowledge of our own righteousness trumps, again and again, honest assessments of the terrain we’re fighting that battle on.
