Which is why i no longer have BDS. If he was dealing with bullshit all day every day from the tier below - he did bloomin well.

Yep. I gain a little sympathy for Bush every day I see what Obama is dealing with, and what Clinton dealt with. I disagreed so fervently with Bush I sometimes mistook him for someone with ill intent. He didn’t have any such malice in him. He was just doing what he thought was right, and what I thought was a horrible mistake. That’s the crux of my point about the nature of evil up above. Evil doesn’t exist in the world in reality. It is perceptual. It’s our reaction to things we detest. And yet, at the same time, there are people so lost and deluded and dangerous in this world, there is no rational action other than to put them down, i.e. to treat them as if they are evil.

That past 48 hours or so have really made me think hard about morality, its illusory nature, and yet how tangibly real it is at the same time. Paradoxically, I don’t believe there are such things as good or evil, and yet, I know each when I see it.

The presidency has got to be the hardest job ever.
