When I want to scream over the internet, I type in all caps. I'm not certain why you use all caps. I'll add that to the list of things I don't understand.

As to legislation being loftier (and loftier has a positive connotation I surely did not intend, but perhaps you missunderstood me because of my 'screaming'. Here's a equally loaded word I actually do mean. 'Grave'. I find the legilsation is question 'Grave'.) would you say that legislation is ever more lofty or grave than legislation? Would it be fair to say that the laws allowing for Japanese interment camps were more than just legislation?

Let me see if I can get the gist of what you WERE arguing. While you are not 100% behind it, and you don't like everything about it, it's a law, and that's what congress does, pass laws, and passing this law is better than not passing any law, ie; rejecting a law and forcing all parties back to the table is... well, how do you feel about that?

I would charcaterize your feelings about all this as tepid. Am I off base on that? I do hope I'm not hurting your ears with my nasty loud typing.
