2. Agreed
Bush only contemplates two words at a time or less: "Yes/No", "Good/Evil", "Us/Them". Anyone who's ever spent more than five minutes considering any issue knows that nothing is purely black and white. It's a convenient way of thinking when you're trying to justify questionable actions but it won't lead to insight or understanding.

We've all been exposed to this. Back when we were just getting geared up to invade, how many of us were called terrorist sympathizers for wanting to take a different route? I keep waiting for the day when I order chocolate ice cream and the person behind the counter says "OH! So you think anyone who likes vanilla is an anti-American homo-humper do you!?!"

It will be nice to have a president that can see what lies between two extremes for a change.
