It’s a difference of priorities

It’s not that Loony Left Moonbats and Mass Media Podpeople don’t care that the country’s going to hell in a handbasket…
 
…It’s just that they prioritize things a little differently to real reality-based folks. Jerry Pournelle notes (scroll below after the security warning) a comment from a discussion group he participates in…
 
“Though only to be fair, it must be admitted that most media/activist/elected Democrats are instead focusing their attention and energy on other extremely important matters, such as the burning issue of whether spousal benefits must necessarily be extended to Wiccans who marry oak trees.”
Yep.  It’s just a difference in priorities.
