[Vision2020] Re: Professor, educate thyself....

Nick,
 
Referring to your sources as left wing was "name calling"?  I thought  it was 
an accurate characterization, with the possible exception of The New  
Republic.  The A.P. has been a reliable mouthpiece for the left for decades  with 
snotty "analysis" masquerading as news.  Look, Nick, I've been called  every 
conceivable name in the book over the years by liberals, including  "Nazi".  All 
because I dared to stand up to them.  As I pointed out in  my first post here, 
liberals are only tolerant as long as you agree with  them.  Their love of 
"diversity" does not include a diversity of political  views.  My experience so 
far on this forum has only reinforced that  conclusion.  As far as calling you 
Anti American, it never happened.   Reread the post, it specifically referred 
to your SOURCES.
 
You scold that I still haven't responded to this and that statement of  
yours.  But you respond to only about half of the points I make.  So  what?  We 
have limited time, we respond to what particularly interests us  or catches our 
eye.  This isn't the classroom where the professor puts all  his notes on the 
board while his students dutifully absorb it and  regurgitate it back on demand.
 
You say Bush has done more to destroy America's reputation than ANY  AMERICAN 
you know.  We are still recovering from eight years as the  laughingstock of 
the world thanks to Bill Clinton.  He confirmed the  impression many 
foreigners have of Americans as vulgar hedonists.
 
You say that under Saddam Iraq was sophisticated.  Tell it to the tens  of 
thousands of his fellow countrymen moldering in mass graves.  Tell it to  the 
tens of thousands of woman abused and subjugated under his rule.
 
You say we are going to return Iraq to the dark ages.  You must be  referring 
to free elections, democracy, the free flow of ideas and  information?  I am 
sure terrorists the world over would be overjoyed if we  summarily withdrew 
from Iraq.  That is why prudence dictates that we  maintain some level of 
presence there for the foreseeable future.
