I've taken action to send it to Kneem.
Quote from the article:
Rep. Jim Leach, an Iowa Republican who voted against the Iraq war
resolution, offered some useful words that both parties should tack
on their walls in the coming weeks.
"I am absolutely convinced that the most important perspective is
that people are obligated to respect opposing views," Leach said in
an interview. "This is one of the closest, most difficult decisions
we've confronted because this is an unprecedented circumstance. . . .
What I suggest to everybody is that Americans are divided and that
every thinking American is conflicted."
Leach warned against the simple dismissal of criticisms of American
policy, particularly from our friends abroad: "If we are a poor
respecter of other people's thoughts, our thoughts are not going to
be well received at another time."
Which goes back to some stuff going on here last week, I think.
