"I may open Salon.Com's webpage and scan the headlines to see what they are thinking but am not reading the articles" Neither is anybody else. That is why they are GOING OUT OF BUSINESS.

Re: "I get no news from leftist sources these days. I may open Salon.Com's webpage and scan the headlines to see what they are thinking but am not reading the articles." So, your opinion is as well entrenched as mine without the need for further brainwashing, eh? Re: "I agree(protesters should re-direct energies), and dont agree with the war protesters....On the other hand, I condemn those on the right trying to use the war and protests to demonize their political opponents. Limbaugh types are hypocrites. If this were a Clinton war they'd be protesting it." I agree protesters would be wise to re-direct their energies, however I have to note that the protesters themselves "use the war and protests to demonize their political opponents." So your complaint about those on the right brings up a chicken and egg question which I think has an objective answer. If this(THIS, mind you) were a Clinton war(against Iraq and coming after 911 as it does), I do find it hard to imagine those on the right being against it(but the relative silence of protesters might be noticable). I think your rush to label "Limbaugh types" as hypocrites has led you to state something highly unlikely, to be sure. Dan B
