"It was foolhardy for Bush to ignore their recommendations, as we can so clearly see now. "

I disagree with this statement.

"so why can't I say it to you? They're your words. Fair's fair." You most certainly can- I did not mean to imply otherwise. I just don't want to be held to a DIFFERENT standard than those that you ( might) agree with.

"I do my best to verify what I say. If I have made an error of fact please tell me and give me a source for the truth. "

I have not said otherwise.

" " believe you are changing the facts to suit your opinions, a characteristic of the present administration."
AND the Democratic candidate... AND most of the liberal posters here on Mudcat."

I had expanded your statement to apply to others- As I said I REFUSE to be held to standards that you will not apply to those that agree with you- THAT is an example of closed-minded bigotry I do not see a need to tolerate.

Note I did not deny it- Just consider me a Democratic candidate trying to cover all the bases...
