It's not as bad as some things, m'dear: like war or terrorism. It is, however, quite mad, and the people who believe it should not under any circumstances be allowed to participate in government - after all, being mad is one of the few legitimate disqualifiers from the universal franchise. I'm beginning to see a way around these imbeciles, mainly by using their own despicable tactics; but I'm not so proud I won't use the tools to hand, nor am I especially hogtied by scruples: I just want these people's madnesses removed from influencing policy. That they should choose to marginalise and denigrate themselves in this fashion is truly heartening. We have mad folk too. Some Islamic countries are run by madmen. I'd like to prevent such an occurrence happening again in America, which is, as you know, still the hope of the world.
