Eh, Sam's actual politics are actually empathetic and smart behind the scenes. Which makes his recent kissing-of-the-ring so disappointing.

Actions scream. Words whisper.

I agree. This wasn't a defense, it was disappointment. In a lot of ways, this is worse than the true believers out there.

I don’t think we do.

I am saying that what some does is their “actual politics”.

Now we're just getting into semantics. But I do agree that what people do is more relevant than what they believe.

This is a very rich man, he is not being forced to do anything. What he does is what he believes and you don't need to spend time coming up with a complex explanation past that. He needs no one's charity.
