My aim is to be productive in fighting this legislation.

By willfully overlooking the likelihood that this thing will pass or condemning others who simply find it much more likely in an election year?

I guess I just have a procedurally oriented mind. Its good for poker (I am process oriented and not results oriented most of the time), but not so good for discussion. My approach to this legislation is to a) get as much info as I can b) figure out what I can personally do to accomplish the end I would like to see (anything but passage of this bill) c) accomplish everything that I possibly can that will achieve the end that I desire. Worrying about likelyhood of passage does not enter my thought process, and I find those with doomsday attitudes to be particularly counter productive. I guess we're probably just wired differently.

Good point.

The odds of losing do not matter if you can not afford to lose.
