57. That's the problem we had with GWB. Every issue was...
...delineated in black vs. white terms. (You're with us or with the terrorists, etc.) Every issue was framed as a dichotomy...only two choices...no middle ground.

This headline continues it by reporting that Kerry says we can't just walk away...so the other, opposite, choice would be he must want us to stay indefinitely. THAT's just seeing our choices in black and white terms. Kerry's proposals are very 'gray'...to use a 2004 election term, they're 'nuanced.' That nuance gets spun. Neither the people, nor the media, seem to want to take the time to hear and understand what he is saying about policy.

It's time they did, because he tends to be correct. ;) That's all I'm saying.
