Just seems shitty when someone has nothing but bad choices to blame
them because their view of the lesser evil is different from  yours. 
As  kelley pointed  out maybe  all her other choices really are worse.
And even if not, you never made a less than  optimum decision? 
Figuring out the "least worst" choice when there are no good options
is  one place any of us can fuck up.
