It is interesting to be called a liberal and a bigot in the same post.

It is, isn't it? It's also true. That's what bugs me about too many liberals: this self-righteous belief that because they are liberal, they are immune to bigotry

But that is exactly how you and Warbler sound like.

That is because you are narrow sighted. It isn't just oil. By going to war you automatically boost your economy.
