Inviting the "president" of vietnam for a state visit. Why in the world would he want to talk to the thugs who run this tragic country - whose human rights record is far worse than even cuba??

Perhaps because he hopes to have some influence on them?

Geez, I wished libs would make up their minds. They gripe and complain when Bush refused to talk to Iran and North Korea. And now you gripe and complain when he decides to talk with Vietnam.

Why don't you just admit: you WILL condemn Bush NO MATTER WHAT. Right????

Say Righty... JP just called you a liberal. What are you gonna' do about it?

That was funny JP, do it again.

That we should attempt a dialog with anyone who is willing. It's more effective, and cheaper than warfare.

I say bring them all in for a chat. (just as soon as Chimpy vacates the office; He is not exactly the sharpest knife in the drawer)

Uh, JP, I think you could use some help here. There are two kinds of wingnuts. There are those who think GWB can do no wrong. That's the group you apparently identify with. Then there are the wingnuts who take GWB's rhetoric seriously and become upset when, despite his rhetoric, he accidentally does something right. (This is the principle of the stopped clock: correct twice a day.) Jake's in the latter group.

Your disagreement is between wings of wingnuts, not with liberals. The rest of us are just sitting back laughing.

Wingnuts who read a Bush quote or some bad news and twists it every way imaginable until they are able to use it to blame Bush.

Coal-to-liquid R's: 90% YES. D's: 78% NO.
Oil Shale Exploration R's: 90% YES. D's: 86% NO.
Outer Continental Shelf Exploration R's: 81% YES. D's: 83% NO.
Increased Refinery Capacity R's: 97% YES. D's: 96% NO

SUMMARY: 91% of House Republicans have historically voted to increase the production of America’s own oil and gas. 86% of House Democrats have historically voted against.

Sorry, but referring to 70% of the American public as "wingnuts" is a bit too imprecise to be useful. And as far as "twisting" is concerned, defending the current administration requires logical contrortions at an astounding level. Perhaps that's why the administration defenders are such a rapidly shrinking minority.

There's plenty of ground between "dialog" and warfare, einstein.
