Addi: Lincoln's words recognize individual perspective:
"...With malice toward none; with charity for all; with firmness in the right, as God gives us to see the right, let us strive on to finish the work we are in; to bind up the nation's wounds; to care for him who shall have borne the battle, and for his widow, and his orphan -- to do all which may achieve and cherish a just and lasting peace among ourselves, and with all nations. "
In any confrontation, opposite sides may both be fighting for "the right" but they might see it differently. I don't believe we should characterize those who don't see it our way disparagingly but try to understand. Understanding another perspective, in politics, the stock market, or life, can be very rewarding.
You know I enjoy your posts. This one, too. Just had to comment, even though it's nothing new, just my perspective. <vbg>
