VCN just changed their level up to co-sponsor, despite disagreement with potential speakers.

As for 'puleeeze,' I don't know how much more direct I can be, taking her points paragraph by paragraph, line by line.

The problem, I'd guess, is not my answers, which are as straightforward as I can make them. The problem is that a number of you here reject the argument, the analysis and the political perspective behind them. Fine, we don't all have to agree. There are many others enormously supportive, and some in between. But we do have to work, to the best of our ability and judgment, on how to unite the many, defeat the few and put and end to this horrible war, sooner rather than later.

I've yet to see a better strategy and tactics put forward by anyone else. If someone can, I'll be the first to make the most of it.

We'll see how it all works out soon enough, who stood where, and whether we're stronger or weaker in our ongoing ability to do what needs to be done.

Just say a prayer for a pleasant Fall afternoon, rather than rain or snow, in which case, we'll have a much harder time summing things up.
