My guess is:[fill in blank] is an idiot.
Had it been another name.
Give yourself a break. You don't have any fucking idea what you are talking about and until you walk in a politician's shoes, you never will.
Feel good about your absolutism though. At least, you've reached a conclusion:
The bad guys wear black.

I'm bored.Statements made beyond one's abilities are never to be questioned within the realm of politics?
What about law? Or Medicine?
I have gone too far...you are right.
How dare I question the competence of anyone, regardless of their competency.

CuriousBut whatever happened to "I do not agree with what you are saying, but I will fight to the death your right to say it?"
Oh yeah --- that was the OLD America!
But really, what got me was the mention of having to "walk in a politician's shoes" -- as if you magically know who has and who hasn't? That was the gut-buster. So... you have the right to question someone's competence to have an opinion because you in fact DO have a "fucking idea", as you so eloquently put it.
Isn't omniscience a form of absolutism?
