Believe it or not, az.

Art, what started as a message to you became one to me.

You are posting with a guy who KNOWS Bush doesn't lie, who denies Man's contribution to global warming, says Iraq was "liberated" by the US for the benefit of the Iraqis, claims MISSION ACCOMPLISHED as a backdrop for a Bush speech was referring to the carrier's tour of duty. A person who claims withdrawal is "unconditional surrender", calls an inheritance tax the "death tax". A person who believes someone with Palin's understanding of the world and it's issues is qualified to be President of the United States.

Who says that Conservatives believe in small Federal government and lesser government spending even while creating the largest government and spending money in ways that could previously not have been imagined.

Who can stare Enron, WorldCom and the current financial crisis in the face and say that unfettered capitism is the finest economic system the world has ever created. Because you can trust Conservatives and fundamental Christian extremists to honor their stewardships.

And who truly believes all of the above.

I'm glad I did this. Who is more foolish, someone with such views or someone who would argue with that person? I believe the foolish one is the person who can evaluate, apply facts both pleasant and unpleasant, and acknowledge realities which may not fit their prejudices who is the foolish person.

Because they have a choice. Some people don't, and I forget that.
