[QUOTE="Ophiolite, post: 74977637, member: 234799"] Thank you for a forthright reply. There is an implication that you may think the following applies to me: I criticise him for "every little imperfection" because - [LIST] [*]I hate him [*]I want to fit in with the "in crowd" [*]I have little respect for the office of President of the USA [/LIST] I offer this clarification: [LIST] [*]I don't think I hate him. I think I despise him. I certainly despise his actions. Whatever you wish to call it, these emotional views arose because of an objective assessment of his actions, not the other way around. I suspect this is true of most who think as I do. [*]One of my faults is a tendency to take a contrary view. (It's a useful way of better defining postiions - a Devil's Advocate approach.) Consequently, fitting in with the "in crowd" is generally abhorrent to me. [*]The short tale I related in regard to Reagan was to illustrate that my respect for the office of President can not extend to a man who demeans it through the manner of his behaviour within it. [/LIST] Moreover, what you describe as "every little imperfection" includes numerous example of irresponsible, ignorant comments. And we haven't even discussed his character flaws such as misogyny and narcissism. [/QUOTE]
