I think we have different ideas about what a and b are. I can see your
point.
If
BadSaddam => (war | sanctions | spanking)
~war does not imply ~BadSaddam
Keep in mind that I'm not trying to argue for or against the war. I'll keep
/that/ opinion to myself. However, I don't believe that a) anti-war
protests are necessarily pro-Iraq or b) pro-Iraq protests are treason.

:
: I usually try to avoid political discussions, so I'll keep this
: semantic.
:
: I disagree with your interpretation of the word 'comfort.' In my
: opinion,
: the intent of the phrase 'aid and comfort' was to mean physical aid or
: harbor, such as arms, food, a place to hide, fake ids, etc.
:
: I also disagree with the assertion that anti-war means pro-enemy. Let's
: take an example that I can't imagine happening: out of the blue, Mr.
: Dinowitz becomes mean and nasty and sets out to hurt both my feelings
: and
: livelyhood. So I announce that I'm going to drive up to NYC and take my
: tire iron upside his punkin' head. If you tell me that I shouldn't hit
: him,
: does that mean that you condone his actions and attitude?
:
: To put that in more formal terms,
: a=>b does not imply ~a=>~b
:
: Okay, that's my totally non-political, completely semantic take. Let
: the
: yelling begin. :-)
