Everyone deserves sympathy. This isn't a political matter, it's a question of basic humanity.

I just think it's important, as we keep demonizing the other side (and I'm guilty of extreme anti-Republican bias) that, in the end, we emphasize with other people, whether they're killers or corrupt politicians or whatever. It's a bit trite and cliched to say so, but at heart, I really believe that.

If I didn't make it clear, I think the world will be completely screwed if McCain's elected (not that Obama will be the new FDR, but he'll be a hell of a lot better than McSame). But still...I don't know, as cynical as I can be, I still feel bad for people.

(I guess I haven't completely renounced my Catholic upbringing.)
