Hi michael97123; Re: "How did i know it would be you who would broad brush bushies and neocons and just plain iraq supporters with chuckies racist brush." Definition of "broad brush": Sweepingly general in scope or thrust: an unfair, broad-brush indictment of all* public officials.* dictionary.reference.com Nowhere have I stated that *all* or even a majority of "bushies and neocons" are racist. My exact words were: "Your view on the Arabs is one that is undoubtedly shared, subrosa, by a lot* of the supporters of our actions in Iraq.*" #reply-19204382 But a substantial number of supporters of Bush's Iraq war are racist, and their views should be publicly debated. I am a conservative. I have conservative friends. None of us would consider voting Democratic. I talk with them about these things. I know what their feelings are on this subject. It is a fact that a very large percentage of this country believes Arabs to be subhuman. They think the same thing of blacks and Native Americans, as well as a lot of other foreigners. For example, they don't trust Jews or Germans either one, LOL. This is a simple fact of life. Ask any black man whether Americans are or are not racist. -- Carl
