As I said to Alex if you’re going to bash Bush, be relevant, and (unsaid) get your facts straight and verified. Dealing in generalizations is what a lazy person does or a person who knows that the specifics or details call their opinions into question which they don’t want,or a stupid person or, a bigoted person take your pick.
The mentality exhibited by many here is that ” the coin has only one side”. To exercise (or attempt) critical thought you have to look at the other side and even the edges (and absorb information that you find personally distasteful)to get as much information as possible to then form an opinion/theory. I won’t go into trying to be objective about it.
