Not even if they're for ... er, ON ... sale?

Catholic blogger Mark P. Shea (hat tip -- Ryan W. McMaken):

I have abandoned the game of supporting candidates who advertise themselves as "30% less evil than the other leading brand." I will not support candidates of any stripe who ask me to support intrinsic grave evil. Please don't tell me that's expecting perfection. It's not. It's a bare minimum request for least common denominator civic decency.

Hear, hear, although I suspect that Shea and I probably disagree on several points pertaining to the precise details of evil (of the intrinsically grave or any other type).

File under "well, so much for that voting business."
