Title: If only more Democrats were like Orson Scott Card
Post by: jinxmchue on October 23, 2008, 08:34:51 AM
He's a Democrat, but I respect and admire him a lot.  The man is just brilliant.  He isn't afraid to expose the faults of the party he supports.

I'm not going to try to reproduce any single part of the article here because it would be like hacking out a piece of the Mona Lisa to admire it.  The entire column must be read to be truly appreciated.

If more Democrats - especially voters - were like OSC, this country would be a lot better off right now.

Here's another column tell us who he's voting for and why:

(He obviously would get a granite pizza at the DUmp.)

I love this part in the 2nd column you posted a link to:

Quote
McCain was not my choice for President at the beginning of the campaign a couple of years ago, Mr. Obama. You were. I rooted for you. I voted for you as recently as the North Carolina primary.

Obviously, I have changed my mind. Why?

I learned a little more about McCain. I learned a lot more about you.
