KT,

>Let's see if I've got this straight. Bush lied to us, so you hate the people who were suckered, but support those who helped him get his lies across? It wasn't just neocons. It <

I dislike the people that lied to us, but think they had/have a good understanding of the issues and risks then and now.

I strongly dislike the policy makers I think are traitors because of dual loyaties (liek Pearle).

I have no problem with the people that were pro war originally and that want to exit responsibly now as long as they understood/understand all the risks/issues that existed then and now. They made a mistake, but at least it was based on reality.

I think the leadership of the left went along with the war because it was politically popular, are against it now because it isn't, and would turn on a dime again if things changed again. They knew they were being spun and lied to. I find that pretty despicable.

I think most of the left is so delusional and idealistic that even when they make a correct decision it's by accident.

I think a couple of the democratic presidential candiates would behave more responsibly than they are talking now if they won the presidency, but that would enfuriate their delusional base.
