No, hate isn't too strong a word to use for the invective against Clinton or the Bush administration we routinely see in this forum--especially when those peddlers of hate who reside here routinely use the language of hate in their political discourse here. Look up this thread, and my point is made quite succinctly.

Nor is the turning of false to true and true to false among those who are most vituperative here, a mere mirage of mine.

No, I think what we are seeing with these conventional politicos is pure hate, which leads to their irrationality when it comes to deciphering the truth of the current body politic in both the US and globally.
