If I'm off my game, out of my league, or out of my mind, I expect my friends to clue me in before I make things worse.

So why do you watch American Idol? There is a clue, LOL. Ick.

I only made my exaggerated point because I admire the logic and precision that goes into your arguments. I had a rationale for what you saw as Bush-bashing, a rationale I spelled out for you after you assumed I was just intent on Bush-bashing for the visceral thrill of it.

Separating the two is tricky and subjective. If I enjoyed bashing for its own sake, this thread would be a very, very different place.

<<<it's always possible that they're not as rational as I think they are due to some intrusion into my normally calm and analytic approach to things. In which case, I would very much appreciate your calling it to my attention.>>>
