I am a liberal.

That said, terms like "Liberal Media", "Politically Correct", "Fascist", "Communist Influence in...", "Fuzzy Thinking", "Wishy Washy" "Knee Jerk Liberal", "N----- Lover", etc., etc., are often attempts to DEMONIZE and trivialize the other guys often well-thought out and serious opinions without doing any homework and preparation---or without confronting in your arguments the actual details of the discussion at hand. They are also attempts to trivialize a more complex topic and reduce it to the level of bumper sticker philosophy that the masses can assimilate and utilize easily in order to push an otherwise rarely stated , if ever, hidden agenda.

As with Geoge Dubya in the recent debates, how very many times did you hear "fuzzy thinking" or "fuzzy math" instead of any real and detailed arguments?

Someone once said, "People will die for an idea provided that idea isn't quite clear to them."

That's why 18 year old kids make the best unquestioning soldiers. At 50 years of age they are just now wondering why the hell they were so gung ho and went off to war so easily.
