Right wing is somebody that expects the poor to pull themselves up by their bootstraps, even if they have no boots. Moderate is somebody that is willing to first give some boots to the poor and then expects them to pull themselves up by their bootstraps. Liberal is somebody that gives boots to the poor then is willing to help them stand while they figure out how to get hold of their bootstraps. IMO Iraq right now has no boots. The poor wretches that make up the former Iraqi army certainly have none, and Bremer just fired them and cut off their salaries. What makes matters worse is that they do have plenty of AK-47s. Kyros
