Coug,
As far as I understand, neither you nor I are happy with Bush, his administration, or this country's involvement in Iraq. I was asking you to clarify what you were saying last night, which your response, IMO, does not do.
"He cleary said what this government had done to him and his family was "Unamerican" And that is just one small example of what has went on under this administration as you well know. What else can I say."
Are you actually quoting Joseph Wilson, in saying he felt the outing of his wife, Valerie Plame as an undercover CIA agent, was "UnAmerican?" I didn't see the show, but I'd be surprised if Wilson used that word.
what saddens me is that, under this administration, tactics like that used against Wilson and Plame are becoming all too American. Hence the need for a new administration.
"And as for the red and blue area statement, you well know I was referring to the fact that most "red" areas being more rural are often thought of as more rabid supporters of this current BS.. But many are just more trusting people and unfortunately that goes to their government."
I do NOT "well know" what you meant by red and blue areas, which often refer to Dem v. Repub allocations. That's why I asked you to clarify.
What you now appear to be saying is that citizens who live in rural areas are more trusting and thus easily-duped by the Bush administration.
This opinion is foreign, and a bit reprehensible, to me. I'm neither an urban nor a rural American, and I'd like to think that clearheadedness and good intent is a function of learning and caring about the country than about where one lives in it.
But if you feel otherwise, well, to each his own.
Go ahead and post to yourself, just don't use my words and then expect me to not respond.
