Obviously, the animosity between Obama supporters and Clinton supporters has gotten way out of hand. It was childish of Obama supporters to rail against Clinton supporters for the past few months. But similarly, its frustrating to see this site devolve into a frenzied Obama-bash.
As an Obama supporter, I'm not going to bash Clinton. I'd just like to ask the Clinton supporters two simple questions because I simply don't understand the Clinton point of view on them.
Clearly, 9/11 was the scheme of horrific madmen who used the political and economic situation in the Middle East for their own political gain. Clearly, mass killings on any level are pure, unadulterated evil.
But why can't we have an honest discussion about it without resorting to political cliche and a stubborn refusal to accept any self-blame. Our policies in the world will always have unintended consequences, and an honest discussion of those policies is what is required.
