It's funny that you attack him for not responding to your post (which was an obvious attempt to change the focus) without actually responding to his factual support of Rove's statement. Any idiot can find some dumbass who has said something stupid, (see, e.g., posts by Hank), but Slave pointed to what was (and in many circles still is) a leading figure in the liberal movement. The best you can do is point to someone who has always been denigrated by Republicans (as well as Democrats). Why not prove him wrong by showing that liberals didn't do what Rove said they did? While you are at it, here are some more quotes from liberals for you to explain:
"In a situation like this, of course you identify with everyone who's suffering. [But we must also think about] the terrorists who are creating such horrible future lives for themselves because of the negativity of this karma. It's all of our jobs to keep our minds as expansive as possible. If you can see [the terrorists] as a relative who's dangerously sick and we have to give them medicine, and the medicine is love and compassion. There's nothing better." -- Richard Gere
"Melt their weapons, melt their hearts, melt their anger with love." -- Shirley MacLaine on her anti-terrorism policy
"In a war on Afghanistan, Osama bin Laden will either be left alive, while thousands of impoverished, frightened people are bombed into oblivion around him, or he will be killed in a bombing attack for which he seems quite prepared. But what would happen to his cool armor if he could be reminded of all the good, nonviolent things he has done? Further, what would happen to him if he could be brought to understand the preciousness of the lives he has destroyed? I firmly believe the only punishment that works is love." -- Alice Walker, The Village Voice
