My guiding principle is trying to get somewhere - trying to overcome differences to reach consensus. Thats a quaint notion in the age of Rove, but I think its coming back. I think people are crying for centrism. And I think you'll find moral relativist will be a compliment in the next ten years. I'll be happy to say I was one all along.

I think moral relativism to the point where obvious right and wrong are muted into a dull shade of gray is wrong and deplorable. The dimwits under Clinton and their allies in the PC armies of the leftist loonies from Hollyweird, Bezerkely and Seattle have succeeded in this blurring, somewhat. I welcomed W's moral clarity, albeit more moralistic than my personal leanings, as a counterweight to these unwashed doofi.
I pray to the babyjesuschristsuperstar that W's clarity, however faux it may have been continues to guide in our crusades against the Islamofacists, the homocide bombers, the big government tax and spenders and the culture of death. Here and abroad.
