There are 275,000 million people in this country and we aren't all going to agree that what one man believes is the best thing for our country. It doesn't mean that we're unpatriotic or heathens. We just have a different point of view.

Can the church say "Amen"?
Thoughtful and careful reflection is the mark of a true intellectual and a true leader. Blind allegiance and a stubborn adherence to the "my way or the highway" point of view are Bush's trademarks, and that's what makes him so wrong for this country. To paraphrase the movie "Dogma" - people fight wars over beliefs. I'd rather follow someone who has a pretty good idea.

Everybody agrees that Iraq was a threat.

Ah, but after last night, even Bush agreed that the number one threat facing the United States is nuclear proliferation. So much for throwing nearly all of our military resources at Iraq.
