Default OT/Politics - Did anyone see the news shows this morning, esp.Meet the Press?

I did watch John O'Neill on NPR the other night. Oliphant laughed
in his face and called him a liar on national TV. At the end of the
segment Lehrer let O'Neill spell out his website then asked Oliphant
where folks could go for more info on the "other side" of the issue.
He snickered and said just read the daily press.



By an odd coincidence I happened to see the same segment. I'm not
particularly interested in either side of this silly argument (4 months
in a stupid war 30+ years ago doesn't make you more or less fit to be
president IMHO), but Oliphant came off as a condescending liberal
elitist. While it may make those of you on the far left feel good about
yourselves I doubt it helped Kerry with the centrist vote.

I think that most people see themselves as "centrists" but other people
looking from the outside usually see it differently.
