I feel the same way. For me, September 11th will be a quiet, meditative day: no tv news or internet.

You want a war? You got it. Message 17849114 I do not nor have I ever abhorred labelling and categorizing people. So what's the problem? I've gotten into a couple of arguments with the lefties for doing just that. You seem to have gotten into another one too. I could not operate without categorizing and labeling. So what's the problem? I made my living as an analyst and that's a basic tool. So what's the problem? You must have me confused with someone else. I doubt it. What I abhor is, when categorizing and labeling people, not bothering to be thoughtful, accurate, and respectful about it. Thoughtful? What leads you to believe I haven't given the matter thought? You're a mind reader? Thanks for assuming I'm an idiot. If that's not categorizing, what is? Accurate? Well, X says you're a conservative. But then Mao Tse Dung was a conservative compared to her. She also said this depends on where the categorizer is. I use the Gold Standard of conservatism: JLA, Bill, and I. That makes you a liberal. Respectful? To some extent that's in the mind of the beholder. OTOH, I don't remember my being disrespectful to you. Until now, anyway.
