My agenda

SCOTT: "Is he Anti-Bush?"

MY REPLY: No. I just disagree with many of his policies and I don't think he's been a particularly effective President.

SCOTT: "or just anti-war in general?"

MY REPLY: Not at all. I just don't think a pre-emptive war in Iraq based upon erroneous claims was good judgement, nor is it in our long term national interest.

SCOTT: "Note, I gave up reading his posts long ago..."

MY REPLY: That's because you don't like reading things that contradict your preconceived paradigm. Most of what I post are merely links to news articles in the mainstream media from CNN, the Washington Post, FOX News, BBC, Reuters, Associated Press and the New York Times.

SCOTT: "If his approach is one of a "Leftist Pacifist" who believes all war is immoral, then he is an idiot...Why bother responding to his tripe?"

MY REPLY: I guess its nice to know that I an not an "idiot." I do not believe that "all war is immoral." I don't even think the war with Iraq is "immoral." I just think its poor policy and bad judgement. I am not a "Leftist Pacifist." I am a moderate Democrat who is just as willing to vote for a moderate Republican.

Scott, your problem is that your intransigent biases cause you to categorize people into your preconceived little boxes. In your mind, anyone who criticizes the current administration has got to be a "leftist pacifist." Its a very ignorant and arrogant perspective.
