Well Tony, I have to agree with you. I have read those lines of Tom's and left the board in disgust. And Tom....this is for you.

Some of your previous slurs (aka "windbag" and earlier quotes) were often descriptive and funny. You seem to have come along using nasty adjectives to describe every thing and every one you disagree with.....which is pretty much everybody. Sometimes this is okay to blow off some steam, but this is now your modus operandi. And we tolerate it, because....to a degree.....you keep this board going.

But, I have different views than you and I have been loosely called a leftist, a Marxist, a socialist, and even a pinko commie. And I REALLY have a hard time being against this war, and be seen as unpatriotic or or siding with the "enemy", mostly who are poor Muslims caught in the middle of George Bush's drastic mistake called the "War on Terror", (which is an oxymoron).

You have yet to give us ANY good analysis of why this is a JUST and NECESSARY war. I suppose I could call you a Bush apologist, jumping up down on the sidelines, spewing expletives at anyone who balks at the destruction of a culture and their country that had NOTHING to do with World Trade Towers going down or Osama bin Laden.

it's time to cool down and cut everyone some slack.
