Because, of course, it is personal. I supported the invasion, and not for oil money either. Your insistence that only corruption or malice explains the actions of the Administration suggests that I'm stupid, ignorant, corrupt, or malign. I'm pretty sure I'm not any of those. Now, it's possible for honest people to disagree on whether the invasion was a good idea or not. But as long as you insist that it _isn't_, it _is_ personal. I volunteered to go to Baghdad. So did quite a few friends of mine. We didn't do it so that people like you could tell us we were stooges for the oil lobby. It seems to me that one of the statements you quoted was right - when people look at George Bush and Osama Bin Laden and think that _George Bush_ is their enemy, there's something wrong with them. Now, I don't think you're one of those people. But you do seem to be trying to prove me wrong. ===== Gautam Mukunda [EMAIL PROTECTED] "Freedom is not free" http://www.mukunda.blogspot.com __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
