Aecetia, point well-taken. No disrespect intended.
Also, if I could clarify: I think the last several posts are more a response to the partisan hacks who post here, smacking down the jackasses.
Oh shit. I don’t want to become one of them! It’s like Star Wars, isn’t it? Tempted by the dark side, drawn into conflict. Oh man, I’ve got to rethink things here… <g>
Anyhow, devotion to a political candidate, not so much. But I do prefer Obama as a candidate at this point. A bit like Eisenhower, centrist and realist. I used to think favorably of McCain but he seems to do an awful lot of kissing up to the Bush43 neocon/evangelist establishment these days.
The larger point I’m interested in seeing discussed is that the LABELS are bogus. An analysis of BO’s foreign policy positions reveals him to be more of a realist and conservative than the idealogical and interventionist republican platform.
And that’s interesting, since all we hear these days is liberal-this, liberal-that. Hmmm…
