Okay. It's hard to tell towards whome the comment is directed, as there isn't a subject. In fact, I don't know now what the intention really is.
But if it is directed at me: yes, I was (am) mad about the emails I have been receiving. They aren't emails about differences in policy, or differences of opinion on specific issues - they have been blatant attacks on the worth of liberals, blacks, gays, Muslims, and basically anyone who is not a white, Baptist, Southern male. Some of them have been not-so-veiled calls for the assassination of Senator Obama. By association, the insinuation is there that people who believe like I do deserve to die.
Yet for standing up to it - even just asking for it not to be sent to me - in a mostly civil manner, deserves being snarked? Is it that I did it publically, or did it at all?
