>>THAT'S WHAT POLITICIANS DO<< i don't like what politicians do. -ng- >>i think most people remember clinton and his cohorts in congress appealing to the emotions<< yes, and i can't stand clinton b/c he couldn't be trusted. >>stop acting so ridiculous by holding mr buchanan to a higher standard than every other politician who tries to rally people to their cause. all politicians are demagogues. how would you characterize the election mess last year? are you trying to tell me that gore and bush weren't hurling epithets and appealing to emotionalism?<< i can't stand their approach. you see, they constantly attempt to hide and mislead. i can't support that crap. wrt gore, clearly he tried to actively steal the election by cherry picking florida. i gagged every time he said, "count all the votes" when he only requested to count 3 or 4 democratic counties and tried to prevent out of state military ballots from being counted. what you are failing to notice is that they do what they do to mislead. they do it b/c it serves their self interest, not b/c it is right or appropriate. i always get concerned when the rhetoric leads to "us" vs "them." it can lead to nothing good that couldn't be achieved in a better way. on the other hand, that mentality can, and has, led to wholesale genocide. with such a small benefit (if any) and such a HUGE downside, imho, it is best avoided. not much productive occurs when one tries to stir hate and contempt for others. you see this in the demicans. you s/b able to see this in the republicrats. i see it in both b/c it exists in both.
