Wal, now, sIx, I know a few folks who think George Bush is a despicable hypocrite, a dumkopf, a war-monger, and doesn't have more than three brain cells to rub together. And these folks have expressed to me great wonder that his despicability is not patently obvious to everyone. They feel, and I am somewhat sympathetic to their view, that he should be despised for the wrongs he has done and the lies he has told.

I think it is right and just that they should be able to express these views wherever they feel like doing so.

But, of course, it would be sheer idiocy to extend these opinions to a whole class of people such as Texans, silver-spoon babies, or Republicans, to be sure.
