Not as if there aren’t real issues to discuss

Eric Alterman sums it up —

It’s amazing and a bit disgusting that our election seems to be turning on a war that took place thirty years ago in which the man who served honorably both in the war and in the anti-war movement is on the defensive against the man who supported the war but took a pass on any service or sacrifice it might have involved, but there it is.

It’s more than a “bit” disgusting.
