To further hijack the thread, a few comments for Bruce.

I am pretty much as ultra liberal as it gets, do not consider it an insult, and plan to stay this way. I think your latest post, while I don't agree with it, was well thought out and well presented - at least enough that I can read it and conclude there are different world views.

I also note lately that the "we" has been dropped in almost all contexts, except for card transactions. I don't know if anyone else has noticed, but I have and I appreciate it - it has to take a conscious effort to do that.

Finally, I will completely agree with your post that liberals want to protect the rights of terrorists, card thieves and drug dealers.

Yep. Right on. You bet I do. Proudly. I would never condone the ACTIONS of those groups of individuals - the actions are crimes and the people criminals.

But as a good American, and as a conscientous (sp?) American, I would absolutely adovocate for their rights to the fairness of the sytem, under the Constitution, and for every other right this country stands for. Advocating for the rights of the unpopular, as well as the popular, is one of the most partriotic things a person can do, in my opinion.
