I'm not sure how you want me to think of them.  Should I pretend that they 
are something they are not?  They are not part of a community, loved by 
friends and family.  They are not people.

I'm sure he'd love to overturn it but he's pretty busy with other things 
right now.  I don't believe you are right about the 'forever' idea.  A 
vote is a complex decision.  A senator may vote for something he opposes 
because he sees the vote as the lesser of two evils.
