I think we all do at some point.

To varying degrees maybe. But I think a lot of people get by without the use of double speak. They'll state their mind, clearly and rationally and explain the position. And then they won't go behind the backs of others and finagle the situation to get the opposite out. Double speak in government is rather dangerous.

Mmmmhmmmm. And people speaking out against the government or the war before didn't support the troops and encouraged terrorists. I've heard it all before. I heard Obama talk about transparency and having bills online days before a vote; things of that manner too. Seen all that broken. I've seen poor interaction with Congress, a desire to get some things through to establish a legacy despite the obvious flaws. You can be on your partisan horse and decry anyone who dare to criticize your candidate, but that doesn't serve the Republic.

You are "serving the Republic" by fussing about how many days a bill is online before a vote, after supporting a president who took the military to war without reason, hired Christian "Crusaders" to commit genocide in Iraq, dumped billions of dollars in taxpayer cash in the Iraqi desert, mysteriously abandoned the search for the man who committed the 9/11 strikes, tortured detainees, and collected every email and phone call you made without legal justification? This is your idea of "serving the republic"? Excuse me if I don't take you seriously.

That's you're assumptions. I didn't support Bush. In fact, my rhetoric makes that clear. You merely had to invent a reason as to why you could deflect away the whole of my post without having to deal with the fact that Obama has lied, has broken promises, and has overall done a poor job as President. Weak deflects and intellectually dishonest debate....excuse me if I don't take you seriously.
