Reply #36: Stop pretending. You are a republican, and you do not have an open mind. [View All]

Let's summarize your positions, OK?

You think Zell Miller is terrific, but you despise John Kerry.

You think Kerry would do nothing different than the Coward re. Iraq.

You believe O'Neill and the swiftboaters made some valid points, which you have not identified. Your only problem with what they did is that they were "overzealous".

You think the opinions of others who have been brainwashed by O'Neill are deserving of value, but you are unwilling to change your mind about Kerry re. Vietnam. (note that I say you are brainwashed by O'Neill because you have repeatedly stated that you are unwilling to change your mind about Kerry.)

You don't have any problem if Bush was AWOL during Vietnam or if he lied about Iraq, and you voted for him after he invaded Iraq, which to date has cost the lives of over 2100 of our people in uniform and at least 25,000 wounded. Not to mention more than 100,000 innocent Iraqi lives.

And so on. And you apparantly are unwilling to change your mind about any of this.

Yes, 2004 is history. Are you saying we should ignore it? Do you not agree that those who ignore the mistakes of history are condemned to repeat them? And if you really want to move on from 2004, why the laudatory comment re. Zell Miller? Don't you realize how much he is hated here? You need to re-examine your motive for being here, because much of what you are saying are the words of a troublemaker.

Hey, if you are really here to learn something and that may get your votes for democrats in 2006 and 2008, terrific. But nothing you have said supports that assertion. IMO.
