It's like you opened my mind and read the exact words that were in it.

Mr. Stein, just realize who you're asking those questions to: the same people that blame Bush for terrorism and 9/11 rather than al Qaeda, Hamas, Islamic Jihad, and Hezbollah. They say we are ignorant and arrogant for defending ourselves against those that wouldn't think twice before wiping us off the planet! If anyone is ignorant, it is they who believe in junk science and they who believe in a propaganda driven by the media that Islam is "a religion of peace." These are the same people, who in my local university compared Ariel Sharon to Adolf Hitler simply for daring to retaliate against terrorists.

For these people, all that is ill in the world is the fault of one man, George W. Bush, because he supposedly stole two elections and he refuses to act like the Europeans who are nothing more than modern day Neville Chamberlains.

p>I was a harsh critic of President Clinton when I was in school, but I never criticized him for deploying troops against dictatorships (even in favor of Muslims), and I never criticized him for natural disasters. How can anyone criticize someone like that for a natural disaster? They can, because the media has successfully whipped them into a hysterical frenzy. The way people have responded to this incident frightens me. Half the people of this country have no resolve -- they only want someone to blame. br> --
