Again, if I stated that no one in the Democratic party has ever aid anything complimentary about Bush, your rebuttal would make sense. One statement by Obama, while certainly gracious, doesn't mean there is no deranged hatred of Bush by the majority of liberals.

Obama also stated that Bush was "unpatriotic" for raising the debt ceiling. And Obama has incessantly blamed Bush for everything bad that has happened in the last 4 years. Maybe you hadn't noticed that.

But you're the one who frequently starts threads about which basically say you saw/heard/read about 1 liberal doing something and then you attribute that to all liberals. I've pointed that out frequently in the past.

You have pointed it out frequently in the past, and I disagree each time you say that (or at least most of the time). I might point out one or two examples that illustrate a pattern. But I understand enough about math to know that one observation does not establish a pattern.

Isn't this an example of mind reading?

In this thread, we have someone stating that Bush got pushed into war by a greedy warmonger, and that Bush's self-portraits illustrate a self-loathing.

I am not reading minds, when I say that some here have an un-supported dislike of the man. I am re-stating what actually took place.

I did like Obama's comments, and I give him credit for that. I'd like to see Obama as gracious in front of a wider, and more politically diverse, audience.
