Stop the "Hate George" tirade long enough to absorb this simple fact...all people ARE NOT the same. There are two distinct types of people...good and evil. Sometimes, good people will commit evil acts but evil people will never do good unless it's a shortcut to some evil end! The clowns in Iran WANT to die in a blaze of fire, in their perverted minds, that will lead to eternal glory! Give folks like that the means to commit mass murder and they WILL commit mass murder. There have always been evil people but most have had an element of self-preservation...Saddam has it, so did Hitler, so did Stalin. They committed horrible acts but they always were looking out for their own survival...not so with these fanatics, they welcome death! When you care about your own survival, there is no point to ending the world as we know it (as would have been the case in the Cuban situation), no point in attacking an elephant with a BB gun (as would be the situation should any of the world's nuclear countries start a nuclear confrontation with US, Britain and Israel)...but when you welcome death...why not kill millions of "infidels"? Stop the constant comparisons of our elected leader with terrorists and other maniacs, it invalidates any points you may make!
Somerfrost,
On a recent thread I posted the fallacies of debating tactics that you just presented.
I'll repeat....
1) Insults. Stating that I "lack clarity" and that parts of my brain have been paralyzed is not a valid arguement, and very untrue. I assure you, I HAVE paid attention.
2) Implication. Twisting the others words to "hear" what you thought was stated. Never did I compare Bush with terrorists, only a democratically elected president in another country, Iran.

You are certainly entitled to your views. If you would like to cite FACTS, I'd be happy to continue the diologue on the TOPIC (not ME).
If you are unable to do so, there is no need to continue.
DTS
