GWOT is being fought on many fronts, Iraq and Afghanistan are just two battle fronts.
BTW, Bush and McCain had already suggested an AFG surge before the election

You said "liberals would like to try and open dialogue, perhaps reason with their enemies"

I'm saying that Obama fails to recognize that these Muslim terrorists can not be reasoned with.

So it seems you feel there is such a wide disparity in views that there is no common ground for negotiations or compromise.

That is troubling. It also makes both sides wrong.

Do you agree with that assessment?

both sides are wrong, an ideology will never be perfectly correct, and it will always divide

that's why i refuse to align myself with any particular party

nihilism might be the perfect ideology, nothing really matters, and so what if it did

WOW. Apparently you have low opinions of anyone who has a different point of view from you.

On the contrary. Some of my best friends are conservatives.

Would that make you a narrow minded individual?

Not at all. I am remarkably broad-minded.

Can we assume you are a "liberal" but have eliminated the "sensitivity training" from your teachings?

You may assume anything you like. In this case, however, your assumption would be wrong.

" Some of my best friends are conservatives."

Laughing I have heard that phrase before and usually it supports the initial observation.

We do not have a democracy,
so it cannot be destroyed.
Under our democratic republic,
the majority is not supposed to be able
to vote itself the property, nor other rights, of the minority.

This is just priceless. On the video, Andrew Klavan (brother of Cliff?), addressing recent college grads, says:
