Respect is a Two Way Street

I don’t care which side of the isle you sit on, you should be able to applaud Senator Obama’s remarks to the media today, when he told the press to leave Sarah Palin’s family alone.

It sucks when people get so wrapped up in their own agendas that they stop acting like human beings, and start seeing everything in terms of attack vectors.  It is, frankly, plain jackassery.

Standing against this kind of thing instead of loading it into your smear campaign is even harder when you actually have something to lose by acting human.  So congrats, Mr. Obama.  You gave some respect where it was due.

That earns you some right back.  Good job, sir.
