Guest D is a voice of reason. I agree 100% Although he or she gets into politics a bit far. I can see some good things Clinton did and some bad things and some things he should have done he did not do. I can say the same for Bush.

Some of the vileness is due to the poor looser syndrome and some of it is truely heartfelt. There will always be two or more opposing opinions.

The core of Civilization is that people can bow to the majority. They can make concessions for the purposes of peacefull coexistense. This was the case several years ago but since the Vietnam war people worldwide have increasingly been taking sides and being less willing to just "get along"

There are several things in the world I don't like but I can tolerate them if it makes the overall quality of life better.

To make my statement short, the world is falling into a mind set of complaints and "I am a victim of such and such". No one wants to admit personal responsibility for their situation. This is accompanied by a failure to recognize their true state of well being.

I realize that my problems are the result of my actions and any corrections need to be done by me. I realize that if I am not as well off as I think I should be, there are oppoertunities by which I can make improvements.

A person can take on the attitude of a looser / victim or one can take on the attitude of a winner and someone who can take care of themselves.

Which person is the better off?
