I already gave a bunch of examples of who are and are not warmongers, and the line is pretty mild. In 2012, either Obama or Romney was going to win the Presidency. There was no reality in which any other candidate won. They were both hawks. Given that, what was the anti-war voter supposed to do in that election? Denounce both of them and their supporters as bloodsoaked warmongers and refuse to vote? Or analyze both candidates' platforms beyond their approach to military and foreign policy and cast a vote for one of them based on what how that voter thought the rest of their platform would affect their life? Put another way - if candidate A promises to give you $500, candidate B promises to kill your dog, and both promise to stay embroiled in Middle Eastern affairs, who should you vote for? And if your answer is "neither", are you really willing to leave your dog's life up to the rest of the electorate? --- Besides, marijuana is far more harmful than steroids. - BlitzBomb I headbang to Bruckner. <cite>Not_an_Owl posted [p:932817549] in Politics C...
