I really doubt you want me to explain it anymore than I already have. The last time I did I was met with what I considered and inability to understand my position and not just a disagreement with it which I found profoundly disappointing. I don't expect agreement but I do expect people to think outside of their own world views enough to understand the world better. twItch^, got it, been there done that. I don't know if you know this but I was very much in agreement with yours and DL's views on foreign policy up to the end of the 80s. I voted for Mondale/Ferraro at the time and they advocated unilateral disarmament during the Cold War. That should be proof enough that I do understand your positions quite intimately. I have not changed my position based on anything but cold hard reasoning. There's come a point where you have to be true to what you believe are the facts of life and the logical conclusions that derive there from. [quote]So...I take it you are opposed to the views of Mr. Kissinger, especially in this regards?[/quote]WS, I agree with Mr. Kissinger when he says the following:[quote]Henry Kissinger believes Barack Obama misstated his views on diplomacy with US adversaries and is not happy about being mischaracterized. He says: "Senator McCain is right. I would not recommend the next President of the United States engage in talks with Iran at the Presidential level. My views on this issue are entirely compatible with the views of my friend Senator John McCain. We do not agree on everything, but we do agree that any negotiations with Iran must be geared to reality." http://newsbusters.org/blogs/warner-todd-huston/2008/09/27/kissinger-says-obama-wrong-kissingers-position-debate-tonight [/quote]I think the key point here is whether or not negotiations occur at the presidential level. A question for Obama supporters: How important is the debt to you? If it's important can you explain why you believe Obama will cut government spending enough to bring down the debt? McCain is the only candidate that is calling for spending cuts and Obama is calling for increased spending almost across the board. I once thought he would claim a savings in spending on the war but recently he's changed his position on the war and wants to pull out of Iraq and send all the troops to Afghanistan so no savings there at least judging from his own words. . . . : [url=http://www.bugimus.com][img]http://www.bugimus.com/sigs/small-sig1.gif[/img][/url] : . .
