Well, at least you don't consider me as big a douche bag as the Saudis. That gives me some comfort. Thanks for the kind words.

What is it about you guys that you hate college professors and people with advanced degrees?

I'm sorry I offended you because I said all those things about your commander in chief. Your reality is different than mine. I guess when I saw the deer in the headlights look in the film footage from the "My Pet Goat" school outing, what you saw was a brave, competent and noble leader wanting to jump to action but not wanting to startle the children (or whatever nonsense it was that the media spouted). I guess when I see a guy that can't string three words together to form a coherent sentence, you see an eloquent statesman. When I see a bunch of guys that change their reason for going to war every time their previous reason is debunked, you see men with resolve who are misunderstood by the liberal media. When I see a for-profit healthcare system that cares more about its shareholders than the people it's supposed to provide care for, I'm not exactly sure what you see. When I see a fallguy whose sentence was commuted by the president even though a Republican appointed judge and a jury of his peers found him guilty and sentenced him to 30 months in prison for obstructing justice, you apparently see a good American who was wrongfully punished in a witch hunt by the other side.

As for the "Intelligent Design" nonsense, you're right, I don't know if you subscribe to it or not. But if you can generalize about me then it shouldn't surprise you that one might associate you with all the craziness coming from the political movement you obviously are a part of.

What difference does it make if I leave my name and email address? We're not talking face to face and we never will be, we're communicating via little boxes of text over the internet. This website isn't different than any other political blog, other than it's way more partisan than the good ones. You sound angry like you want to start a fight. Maybe you're the one that needs to change your medication a bit. Relax.

You think I'm uninformed. I think you're misinformed. The truth is we're both probably uninformed and misinformed, as the media seems to tuck away important stories or ignore them altogether in favor of Paris Hilton, Anna Nicole Smith and dead wrestlers. Political talking head shows that actually try to address more important topics rarely have credible guests on and never give people enough time to get any points across. The loudest screamer is the winner. That's all we have to work with. You read between the lines and see things through your filter and I see things through mine.

Anyway, I see what's happening. Now you're stuck to the guy with the 26% approval rate and his vice president whose approval rate is almost into single digits. So, you have to keep defending him...it's either that or admit you were wrong. You're stuck to the unpopular war that 70-some percent of your countrymen disapprove of. You chose your team and dug your heels in the sand and even though it's obvious to most people, possibly even to you, that you're on a sinking ship, you're going to fight until the very end. You're angry about that, aren't you? I have to give you credit, though, you guys are tough. You don't give up.
