Must... gather... hate...
Hmmm. SF Supervisor Gerardo Sandoval thinks America shouldn't have a military at all. And went on national TV to not only say so, but to say that's the position of San Francisco. Good job, dude. He clarifies, though, that he really meant America should only not have a standing military. That way, when anyone attacks, they'll be fought off by the Coast Guard and local police. Or, I suppose, if the attacker announces its plan to attack and then waits patiently, we can build a military from scratch to respond.
While The Chron considers hunting accidents to be front-page news for days, especially if the person involved doesn't immediately call the New York Times to let them know that a hunting accident has taken place, a national representation of San Francisco like Sandoval's is not front page news. The only reference in today's paper was in an editorial, which describes it as follows:
Then came the rhetorical trap.
Rhetorical trap? A partial but hefty transcript is in the editorial, so take a look yourself and see if you can find the "trap." To me, it looks like both hosts gave Sandoval plenty of ways out.
