It doesn't make it so. Or un-so. It's just my opinion of his work. I think he's disgusting and incompetant. As well as being a f_cking liar. If you want to call it non-partisan hate, that's fine with me. I don't hate him, just to hate him. I don't hate him, as a person, at all. I hate what he has done with my country and my tax dollars.Originally posted by KCConservative
lol....and so your opinion of things make it so? Okay, let's call it your non partisan hate. lol
Thanks for admitting that this is only your opinion. To continue insinuating that it is fact is disingenuous. Certainly you are entitled to your opinion and I'm glad I could help you see that it is nothing more than opinion. Thanks also for admitting you hate.Billo_Really said:It doesn't make it so.

Though the broader Middle East has no history of democracy, this is not an excuse for doing nothing. If every action required a precedent, there would be no firsts. We are confident that democracy will succeed in this region not simply because we have faith in our principles but because the basic human longing for liberty and democratic rights has transformed our world. Dogmatic cynics and cultural determinists were once certain that "Asian values," or Latin culture, or Slavic despotism, or African tribalism would each render democracy impossible. But they were wrong, and our statecraft must now be guided by the undeniable truth that democracy is the only assurance of lasting peace and security between states, because it is the only guarantee of freedom and justice within states
