<<does anybody on the left ever, at anytime, think something through past there emotional reactions>>
When you say "emotional reactions", are you including such untidy and inefficient things as, say, concern for human life? Or, for example, a sense that actions have consequences, and that pissing off the entire rest-of-the-world is an action whose consequences will eventually be bad for the USA?
Perhaps you define any opinion with which you disagree as an "emotional reaction"?
By the way, I am a moderate centrist. I voted for Margaret Thatcher in 1979 because England urgently needed a reversal of uncontrolled socialism. I am naturalizing so I can vote against Bush in 04 because I feel his administration is as dangerous in its way as were the U.K.'s Labour governments of the 60's and 70's in their own way. Extremists, in general, should not hold power. |
