I was bothered because, I believe the question can be asked from a public policy point of view. When questions are asked in with the assumed negative, it introduces 'BIAS'. I understand this is how these individuals feel, and the town hall type debate will bring these personal opinions out, but good policy is not necessarily based on personal convictions.pete said:michael, why were you bothered? was it because a citizen, and a female mind you, has different view on this issue from yours? there is good reason this issue has not been resolved politically, and comes up for debate in more years than i care to remember... people have strong and justifiable rationale for both ends of the debate.
kerry did his best impression yet of mario cuomo, and i feel lost ground on that... as opposed to bush, who stood by his convictions (or perhaps those of his supporters)...
Do you think Senator Kerry did not have convictions? Or is it that Bush's convictions are correct, and Kerry's convictions are incorrect?
