"America at a Crossroads" veers to the right

    Actually Peter

    I don't think I misread you. I never thought nor suggested that your second sentence was anything other than a way to illustrate your point. I just thought that your point was wrong and your attempted analogy a failure.

    You however seemed to have skipped over my first paragraph where I tried to indicate why I thought you were wrong in making that inference from Kamiya's piece.

    This whole thing is now ridiculously referential.
