Yes, we can.

scaeagles, to clarify my feeling about the Republican party being pro-war. In my lifetime, America has been involved in:

- Vietnam (while this was a JFK/LBJ concoction, my earliest memory of political awareness was Nixon and Cambodia).
- Grenada - Ronald Reagan
- Panama - George H. W. Bush
- Afghanistan - George W. Bush
- Iraq - George W Bush

Now, I know that you could point to Clinton's involvement in Bosnia, but I honestly see that as a NATO-led intervention that actually came almost too late.

I'm not saying that my feelings are 100% facts, it's just that I see Republicans as Hawks, and it doesn't sit right with me.

And more to the point of intolerance, as I was bemoaning before, it's a party that is built on a base that believes "good family man" is the antonym to "Arab". THAT'S intolerance, and that's the sentiment that has lead us into war and I fear would continue to lead us into war under McCain out of fear and ignorance.
