I do agree with you here, the world certainly learned some lessons about the dangers of religious extremism thanks to Bush.

No, you weren't. Yes I was. That's what happens when the wishy-washy fades and conviction takes over.

A look back at your recent posts in other threads shows your post pattern seems to go something like this:

POST A: I am very intellectual and giving my opinion. I mean no harm.

--insert dissenting opinion from another poster here--

POST B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I: I won't debate this point with you. Instead, I will personally attack you and not even defend my position on the issues. I will call you a name or two and then try to get this thread up to 25 posts with a back-and-forth between two members with only name calling and no serious debate on the topic at hand. I will insert, "unlike you" at the beginning of most of my posts to imply I am waaaaay better, and will end many of them with rhetorical questions like "are you really that stupid?" that serve no purpose but to clog up the board and dumb-down the debate.

(I'm done. Posting something else not relating to the OP's topic only serves to make my point. Let's see if you can stand me having the last word...somehow, I doubt it. Unlike you, I will refrain, or are you really stupid enough to post again?)

Aww, I'm sorry.
I didn't mean to hurt your feelings.

You make silly predictions, yet you want to be taken seriously, right?
That is what you are saying?

Bush is a religious nut, is what I meant by the post you quoted.

No, I think what we've identified is that most people's seething hatred and robotic-like attack reflex on Bush will never allow the OP's question to be honestly answered without having to wade through 40 pages of unoriginal, not-clever, horribly un-sarcastic, one-liners before he gets to the information he wanted.
