Problem with the closed-minded right.

Some of you probably have been seeing that the
Pro-War group that was posting here, and continue to
post, formed another group, something like Let's
Start the War Now.

One member then procedes to post in RED CAPS here every
day or so BOYCOTT THE DON'T START THE WAR thread, etc.

I got tired of seeing this, so I posted something along the same lines to their thread.

Then, of course, I started getting the hate comments, that wouldn't stop.

You see, the people on the right, like have everything their way. They like to start their own group, and shout
at people who dare post an opposing viewpoint.

They also like to come here and post slurs, and other
things for the Anti-War people in this group. They'd
like everything their way.

The problem is, their argument is weak, and they make
all kinds of foolish assumptions, like anybody that is
against the Iraq war is a "Peacenik" and "liberal".

I am neither, BTW. I support a strong military, support
missile defense, and support the war on terror. They do
not stop to look at shades of gray, however. To them, much
like to Bush, you are either with us, or against us.

Their argument is weak, so they attempt to browbeat the
opposing side, and spam groups like this one, to try
to drown out other points of view.
