What Really Matters: Political Edition

Much is being made these days over trivial matters, at least when it comes to candidates for President: Clinton’s “boys’ club” remarks. Obama’s flag pin, or lack thereof. Edwards’s hair. Romney’s flips (or flops). Thompson’s energy level. Giuliani’s wives, plural. Kucinich’s UFOs. Nearly all the Republicans namechecking Ronald Reagan as if he were the second coming (yeah, right). Et cetera, et cetera, et cetera. Whatever happened to issues? You know, information about how these candidates plan to govern, delivered in complete, adult, non-sound bite-sized sentences. Remember those?

Whether you support the candidacy of John Edwards or not, you have to love this gem, spawned from the YouTube debates. It makes a very valid point.
