I have been reading Guests' posts carefully and he is not supporting Bush against Kerry, as some of you have tried to insinuate, but trying to point out the lack of "Democracy" in the political process.
The attitude of you old timers in abusing someone who is only putting across his opinion in moderate language, is frankly disgusting.
Where is all the tolerance and free speech that Mudcat is supposed to be famous for?

I am a member here, and i feel it is my right to state my agreement with Guest.

As a Scot, Two things bother me about the Kerry platform.
I dont understand how it can be looked on as beneficial to place such emphasis on Kerrys' volunteering for a war which is now discredited throughout the world.

And how can intelligent people vote for a party which fell in behind Bushs' criminal war in Iraq.
They had the chance to oppose ,and gain the respect of the world,instead they showed themselves to be as self serving as the Republicans,and twice as cowardly.

Try thinking with bothsides of your brain before condemning...Ake
