Yes, we can.

We've been over the disagreements on this, but with 12 UN resolutions on Iraq, war was hardly a first option.

Yes, to reasonable people, violence is not always necessary. However, the world is full of unreasonable people who only will play nicely when threats of violence that will be followed through on are used. Otherwise there is no deterrence.

Re:clinics and doctors -
Of course the vast majority of the right has condemned such actions when they have taken place. There are the far, far, far, right fringe elements that don't condemn it, but that's, well, the fringe. Not unlike most people on the left who were against the Vietnam war didn't support blowing up US governmnet buildings in protest.

As the nominee for Vice President of the United States, has any major party ever nominated an individual less qualified than Ms. Palin?

How weird, I was thinking about this myself just this morning, for no reason. I'm a bit worried of pissing off my neighbors who already don't like us much, or ending up with a smashed pumpkin (which I'm not sure I could handle in a mature fashion). But, the idea did pop into my head and now I want to do it even more...

Forget Palin. They should have called Obama the Barackuda.

I've never looked at her and thought she's just as smart as me. I'm surprised you did.
