I wonder if certain Democratic ex-presidents aren’t sometimes haunted in the middle of the night thinking “Damn I should’ve done this” or “Damn I should’ve done that.“ Like maybe tonight.

That’s because you are an optimist. I believe that when the best political minds in the country choose not to do something they promised, it was a conscious decision, taken with full knowledge of the risks and benefits.

Thus the “haunted in the middle of the night” part, when such conscious decisions are confronted with the weight of conscience and innate inner knowing.

I’ll have to take your word for the supposition that these particular people have *working* consciences or that level of self-reflection. It doesn’t seem so from out here. “We think the price was worth it.”

I'm truly starting to believe that most politicians are at least sociopaths, if not psychopaths. The evidence is right in front of our faces.
