Sympathy For The Devil

As loathe as I am to discuss that recent "gate" controversy or its affiliate "scandals," tantrums, and firestorms, and as much as I'm disgusted by its perpetrators, my own goddamn commie pinko bleeding heart cannot help but have some sympathy for the latter. There's just a lot there I identify with more than I'm comfortable with, and also a lot of "there but for the grace of God..." to it. I have a lot more sympathy for their victims, though.
