Kristin, this ("Almost as soon as I said it, I spotted my own hypocritical and inconsistent self, plain and clear. Man, I hate it when that happens.") is what I love about you. To be honest, I'm not too concerned with Obama or Notre Dame, so I don't have much to say about it, except that I love how you talk about what's real in all of us, and you do it fearlessly (or apparently so!). Thanks. :)
