That is NOT what I said; I said that when you act like people who don't agree with you are dumb then you are bashing, whether it be Bush or the poster.

I'm tired of being told I don't understand the Constitution, or that I don't care about the Constitution, that I put party over country, blah blah blah.

What I put first, above EVERYTHING, including my own desires, is this COUNTRY; I'm not one of these "line in the sand" types........as I said yesterday, if you keep drawing a line in the sand, sooner or later it becomes a circle and you are the only one in it and anybody who doesn't see things the way you do is the enemy.

You all just do not have the market cornered on what is right, to the exclusion of all other people's views.

You all

You're talking as if everyone that disagrees with you is in one single "other" group.

Hmm, if the Founders had thought like that, we'd still be drinking tea and have a King. Our Constitution and particularly the Bill of Rights is a little different than tarrifs on goods, if we dont draw the line there, where do we draw it?

And TJ's post was not an example of Bush bashing, and I don't recall where he or I said anything about you not understanding the Constitution. He was simply asking a question. For some reason, you took offense.

Well there you have it, NOTHING is worth fighting for, everything is negociable. Good thing you were not at the Alamo.
