I sometimes wonder if they know what it's like to be bullied out of lunch money, teased and made fun of just because they were different, experienced bigotry and racism, etc.

Or maybe they don't know about being the one who is the Victim, I know it's difficult to understand, but CAN they see from a Victim's POV?

2. I expect not, considering their backgrounds. But victims can easily become
victimizers themselves. They often do.

8. "Chickenshit and gutless"?
Like challenging people on an anonyous internet forum?

12. Perhaps you miss my point?
I was suggesting that you might find something more meaningful to do. You aren't going to get much done by challenging people anonymously. Why don't you rather spend some time talking to neighbors about issues?

13. Don't know about the rest of those here
but I'm really scared. Terrified by yet another macho Bush supporter that like to beat their chests while sending other peoples kids off to die or be maimed in a war that we didn't need to fight.

17. Chickenshit and gutless
is a very good description for FIVE DEFERMENT Cheney. Really likes shooting farm released birds but a bit reluctant to take up arms for his country.

10. Guess he never did coke, was never a drunken lush ...
... doesn't talk stupidly. I guess there aren't a zillion pictures and videos of Bush directly looking and acting stupid while there is not a single one of Clinton or, really, any other president. I guess Cheney hasn't been directly shown to be lying about war on national TV multiple times.

I guess Bush deserves credit for this stupid, fruitless war. I guess his record as president is a good one.

Thanks for posting, Laura.

14. Not a big fan of Kerry actually.
Also, I'm a 44-year-old guy.

Keep the Dubya sticker on your car, though, by all means. It's a good way to admit your mistake for everyone to see.

18. I hear Rove was a nerd in school and was often made fun of.

It's possible that he has a lot of pent up anger and he uses his power to fuck people over to help him feel better about himself.

Low self-esteem often leads to destructive behavior whether it be in a street gang or a neocon gang.
