I'm not going to ask you to embrace my opinion, so you are safe there. What does irritate me is that everybody wants a scape goat. You and everybody else who votes, including me are responsible for the current state of affairs, not the president or anybody else, because they are doing what we want them to or what they think that we want from them.
If we don't like the way they are running things, we vote them out, pure and simple. Because of the fact that we havent voted them out, that makes me believe that they are doing what we want them too. Now as to human rights, you have a muslim extremist incharge of iran who deny's that a holcaust happened. You have muslim extremists in afghanistan who are willing and want to chop your head off if you don't grow a beard. There are many others who have publicly gone on tv and said that they will destroy us and our way of life. I'm sorry folks, but when it walks and quacks like a duck, it must be a duck and hiding your head in the sand will not make it go away. So for me, I believe he's doing one hell of a job.

Be reasonable, Virgil. What am I supposed to say? That you are absolutely right but I am a total jerk who knows nothing and therefore I must disagree with you? I respect your opinion, Virgil but that doesn't mean that I have to embrace it. => But as you say, you are entitled to your belief's. => I believe we are doing the right thing and that the => alternatives of not fighting the muslim extremists will lead => to the downfall of civilization and human rights the world over. OK, Virgil. Convince me. What "human rights the world over" are you talking about? Most of the world does not enjoy the level of human rights that we Americans have today, let alone the level of human right that we Americans HAD before the PATRIOT act. There was a time, not too long ago, that Americans could communicate with each other privately without worrying about who was listening in. There was a time when Americans had the right of Habeas Corpus to provide some protection from being jailed for no reason. Hell, there was even a time (albeit short) that Americans did not have to worry about being suspected of a crime because of the clothes that they wore or the color of their skin or the lord they worshipped. So whose human rights are we protecting, Virgil? And what civilization is going to fall down? The one in Darfur? Chile? Afghanistan? Houston? => Virgil Bierschwale I am sorry if you don't like my attitude, Virgil but you really need to stop being so defensive and start telling us why you think your opinions are right. Geez, the worst thing that can happen is someone might learn something!
