The man has a hard job, true enough. Perhaps if he was
there working a bit more, he get a bit more done. He
deserves my respect when he showes me some. In the
American system, dissent is the cornerstone of democracy.
The only respect I'll give him is for the office he holds. If
he comes into the room I'm in, I'll stand. When he claimed
(falsely) that we needed to urgently invade Iraq, I took
him at his word and supported him. Now, that I know he
lied to me, I don't have much respect left for him. When
he landed on the carrier, I was angry because I thought
he needlessly risked his life for political gain. When he
went to Iraq, I was again angry. That's respect I give to
the office, not to the man.

Please put OT: at the beginning of subject lines for your off topic
posts, as a
courtesy to others, so I don't have to kill file you completely, Jon.

You and Bart (and a few outside agitators with NO interest in sailing) are
turning this into another worthless newsgroup, such as rec.boats. That
group is
now 95% political bull**** from both sides, and the folks interested in
boats
with anything worthwhile to say have all left in disgust. The political
noise in
this group is fast approaching that one. You are either part of the
solution, or
part of the problem.
