FYI the issue with Kirk was how blatant his flip flop was on this. I wouldn't have made a big deal if he was always opposed.
Free Republic is full of hilarious comments. My favorite being something along the lines of "This will ruin our military just as it has ruined the British, Israeli, Canadian and German militaries." If this was on any other forum, everyone would assume it to be sarcasm, but for some reason Freepers expect us to take it as fact with no backing up. Quite amusing.
So... it would be better if he just flat out opposed repeal rather than to help overturn it?
Ideological extremists of either variety just don't make any sense sometimes.
