Reply #60: I Can't Stand Falsely Manufactured News Stories Designed Only To Degrade. [View All]

Though I've made clear my strong political dissatisfaction with her methods/actions as of late and think she's completely going about things the wrong way, I still do respect and admire her for all she had done prior. I also know she's still a good person with a golden heart and who is braver in the struggle than most of us, even if I now find myself at odds with her. But even disagreeing with her, she (nor anyone else for that matter) doesn't deserve to have shots taken at her through manufactured non-event news stories designed only to create controversy where none existed.

I'm a believer in that if you're going to criticize somebody, even harshly, do so on the core merits. Manufacturing drama out of irrelevent non-events is just simply cheating and dishonorable in my opinion.

I'm kinda torn with this whole Cindy situation. On one hand, I consider her politically damaging and now hurting our cause more than helping it by going about things in illogical and almost extreme ways, but yet when I read stories like this or see others tear her apart unfairly I still feel the need to strongly defend her. It's an odd state of mind to have and I can't think of one other person in politics I've ever been able to truly care for and resent at the exact same time.
