I've made a few brief comments

LOL! Indeed you have

Message 19190409

The single best thing about Bush is the misery and suffering he inflicts ... etc.

You've said a mouthful there. If that's the best thing, what's the next-best? Or the worst?

you've responded in laborious, self-justifying detail

Well, detail, anyway. The justifying will have to be left to those who take the time to read both your comments and my reiteration of them in simple terms, showing what you and others think.

You're evidently compelled to discuss them

Only to the extent you wish to keep (a) denying you say things like that, or (b)you didn't mean what you said, or (c) other various bombast. If you wish to use reason instead of polemics it gets dispensed with pretty quickly.

Its only interesting to discuss to the extent it does, or does not illustrate a common theme among those who attempt to support policies that aren't supportable by reason, only by bombast. Its not a personal discussion of you, but of the language, thoughts and intentions of a group of supporters, usually called "neocons", or for those who don't think in detailed but more superficial terms, "Bush supporters". And not all, just some of the more interesting ones, of which you seem to be a member.

One can react to faulty logic by analysis and discussion, or dismissal and polemics. Obviously, analysis and discussion lead to success. The other road leads to self-destruction, and in this case the destruction of much else, including other sovereign countries, innocent civilians, and what used to be known fondly as "The American Way".
