**Zenster** began his lie designed to divide with this crap:

a) You’re completely without class.  
b) You’re a divider and a traitor, not because you believe in peace, not because you feel there is moral value in the opposition, but because you desire and delight in bringing down the U.S.'s chosen leadership, at a time when unity of purpose is critical.  
c) You, sir, are a fucking idiot.

Sorry, I wish I would’ve been a little classier and said

c) You, sir are an idiot.

I ain’t a mod, sir, but that’s out of line.

Zenster, I have often enjoyed your posts and we have traded differing views on China. However, IMHO, this debate started off with erroneous information and hasn’t improved.

While in no way defending the rest of of Zen’s opinions here, I will point out one thing in this regard: Apparently, Bush’s appointment for drug czar is such an extremist that even Clinton’s wacko general drug czar was saying that this guy is too much of an extremist! When one extremist is calling another person an extremist (in the same direction!!!) by his standards, I get worried!!!
