The Discussion
-Remember when we had that wonderful discussion?
-The wine was good.
-Agreed. And I complained that the traitors wanted to impeach the president
and vice president...?
-And they didn’t stop there!
-All that talk about lying us into war, and abridging one’s rights, and violating the Constitution.
-Rhetoric. Music.
-But that’s not what you said then. You...intellectualized it. You said...
-That it was all too abstract for me. What of it?
-Well, I’m afraid it just started being a good deal more concrete. For you.
-Just talk! It was...!
-Well, you’ll soon have some facts to tie it into.
