Your predilection for myopically criticizing controvertible content with half-truths is renown.

I challenge you to address the important facts:

One Half of the people in the United States think George Bush is a mistaken, self-interested, stupid man.

To simply use your "irrefutable facts" is 100% bogus and does not address the issue.

You are like the policeman who hits me over the head till I bleed because I accuse him of illegitimately using his power. Neither of you are dealing with the issue.

Nothing could be more ON TOPIC:

This country and the Values it stood for are being more and more compromised by each successive administration.

If you continue to pretend that I am off topic or not addressing the issues you are the fool, not I.

I repeat: Deal with the Issues.

America is going to hell in a hand-basket and you are bloviating about how pretty our flag is and how those of us who don't see how pretty your flag is are not in touch with your irrefutable facts etc.

Please take off your patriotic blinders.

Please look at the big picture.

Please see that there is another side to the topic and that just as many intelligent people feel just as strongly as you in opposition to you.

Then ask yourself why. Really, truthfully ask yourself why. Why is it that 50% of America disagrees with you? That they are stupid or misinformed is not a sufficient answer.

You are letting your rhetoric get in your way.

Walk on your street today. People are discussing politics everywhere. Do a reality check. Get in touch with the people on your very own block. I challenge you.

I challenge you to check in with Your America on your block.

Tell me what the reality is on your block.

The reality in America is very different that your perception of it.

You can accuse me all you want - it is your field and your red, white & blue balls - but I know how America feels and you don't.

America feels very torn. America feels very sad. We are not proud like we once were.

Why is that?

What are you and I going to do about it?
