The Left gets exercised and in a lather whenever I try to have a conversation about the war but 90% won't engage, and 4% just say "Lets agree to disagree".

Hey, you are reaching 6%, that's not too bad, trust me.

You might double your batting average and save some aggravation (with those who may be truly interested and "reachable" but base their decisions or thinking on distorted, or so-called "sophisticated" media information and don't know or understand the real issues) if you have them read a small article by a Democrat former professor at Navy College Thomas P. Barnett "Pentagon's New Map (Why we're going to war, and why we'll keep going to war)" which was published in Esquire magazine in March 2003, before the start of Operation Iraqi Freedom:

(has very illuminating maps in PDF and JPEG formats)

It literally opened some people's eyes on entire subject, and they've become far more receptive to a different way of thinking, and to media's daily body count "reports".
