If that is your litmus test, you are a strange cookie, but that is your prerogative

I'd say blaming the US for 911 is a pretty good litmus test. I'd say spreading leftist propaganda is a good one. But most of all it is that he is so stupid as to believe these over 1 million death stats in the first place. Obviously anyone believing this lacks some brain cells or has other agendas. It's like believing the Jenin massacre happened (but Ron Paul probably believes that as well).

---most people have more important litmus tests like domestic affairs (taxes, abortion, corruption, etc)

Yes, what do the dems call them Kitchen issues or something like that.

Dems want to focus on Kitchen-table issues too.

As Terry McAulife said, "People are going to vote on the kitchen table issues we've talked about for 18 months."

You continue to slander his position, he did not say the US was to blame. What he said was, if we didn't have an interventionist military, we would be less likely to be hit. That is not saying the US is responsible for idiots, just that what we do brings the idiots out. You obviously are unable to comprehend the difference which doesn't say much about you. As for a million people dying under Saddam Insane, it's probably possible considering how looney he is.
