Political Idiots

It never ceases to amaze me how people can let their political view cloud their judgement.

Let's begin with the Indianapolis police officer who put an "Impeach Obama" sticker on his squad car. You can check out the story here. How is this wrong? Let me count the ways. How about starting with this guy's ignorance of how our government system works. At this point, Obama isn't even eligible for impeachment, and for there to be an impeachment, he has to have done something illegal. To date, I can't figure out how he could have had the time. Then, come on, there's a time and place for everything, and on the job on a police cruiser is neither the time nor the place.

Now to the more severe. Arson to the Wasilla church where Sarah Palin attends. So far, nobody has said that it was politically motivated, but it does look pretty suspicious. I hope that it winds up not being a political statement. Assuming that it is, I have to file this with the those guys who were plotting to assassinate Obama -- under "What have we become?" Come on folks, we're better than this. Can't we have political disagreement and debate without it coming to this?

Then again, given the Prop 8 demonstrations we saw in California just recently, maybe we can't.
