JD - Good I am taking this in a very light hatred manor - I was hoping
it came across that way through email :)
As for the American empire and current illegal activity; it does not
justify the breaking of laws in any way - I was retorting to the
"liberal" (or conservative not sure which it was) curriculum regarding
the Mexican American war. The light hatred nature of my mildly
satirical retort is to show that it does not matter. But you cut it
off too early by jumping to the point!!! - I was so going to go
another round indicating that all those Mexicans flooding across the
boarder would already have good American jobs if we just took the
whole country over 150 years ago insted of stoping where we did ;)
Now I have to let some one else fan the flames :)
The whole point I would like to make is that truth depends greatly on
your point of view. Don't recite rhetoric, think in a logical and
scientific manor, don't cloud the issue, define the problem and
develop a holistic and pragmatic approach. But I may not have been
able to pull that argument off in an email forum any way so I suppose
cutting to the chase (which is something that I encourage) is to be
rewarded with a cessation of flame :)
At lest from me, at lest for now ;)
