Your point escapes me. Conservatives have been bashing anti-war and "peaceniks" in a generic way over the last war. They have been outraged, for example, that "traitor peaceniks" dared opposed the war after we "were in it."

Of course, this did not stop conservatives from opposing the Kosovo war after we "were in it." There is an inconsistency here...but apparently you can't or won't admit it.

Apparently, by their "bizarre" standards of pro-conservatives these same conservatives who opposed Kosovo were not "antiwar peaceniks" then. Very bizarre indeed! I guess most pro-warriors only condemn folks as "antiwar peaceniks" when they oppose Republican wars.

My point was: you made it seem "inconsistent" for certain conservatives to oppose Kosovo war but support Iraq war, I tried to explain that this was illogical and incorrect. If you understand that already, great.

Yes it did. Well, it stopped me, anyway. I can't possibly speak for everyone else and it wouldn't be fair to force me to.

That's correct, opposing Kosovo didn't make one a peacenik. why do you think otherwise? bizarre

Not me, I don't necessarily "condemn" people who oppose wars as "peaceniks" either way
