i agree 100%! But I also don't think that Arafat is a terrorist. When McVeigh killed 160 people, we didn't call Clinton one, did we?  |

Hmmm, this is a tough issue to make a decision on. I don't like GWB to begin with, and I kinda feel sorry for him. I think that following in Daddy's footsteps lead him into high waters, that go WAY over his head. But in reference to the Foreign Policy Issues, Sometimes I think maybe we overstep our boundaries in the foriegn countries, while at other times, it seems we can't do enough. So of course it isn't black and white. We just need someone who can decipher which shade pf grey he/SHE wants to go with.  |

I think the whole "no holds barred/it's all black and white" outlook is simply generated to invoke the support of the public, whether or not official policy makers believe it (probably not, if they have any sense). If you want people to support an idea and help spread it around, what better type of person to do it? It seems the people who think this way are always the ones most vocal about an issue, as well as the quickest to blindly support it and run around frantically getting everyone else to agree with them. That makes sense ... after all, what they believe, (or were told to believe, if they then agree) becomes the ONLY viewpoint, and all others not on that extreme are wrong. People like that really bug me - I want to yell, why can't you think for yourself! Unfortunately, inducing any such change is pretty tough. But still, in the end, those are the people you want on your side, who can more easily be convinced to do what you want them to do, so you might as well try to appeal to them from the beginning.  |

Oh please, Bush can't even identify the COLORS black and white, let alone comphrend anything like foreign policies. Cheney and Powell are really running the show here, that idiot Bush is just there to seem like some moral leader. I also can't believe that people have the ODDASITY to compare him to FDR, but that's an entirely different thing. -ID-  |

Bush is an idiot. He doesn't make any decisions regarding national policy. He's just the mouthpiece that 'speaks them. Bush is a puppet for a much larger machine, a military nachine.  |
