So ignorance does indeed have to do with it. Why did you just say ignorance has nothing to do with it?
I didn't. But ignorance of people can be manipulated to promote a position of the issue which in this case, "Bush and the American people are 'evil'".

The real issue which they are trying to promote is "the evilness of Bush and the American people." One of the means of promoting that issue is the manipulation of the people's ignorance.

I know what I said. Simply quoting me doesn't do anything.

You edited your post. I guess you just clicked the wrong button.

Do you have a point? You have not contradicted anything I have said. Your (latest) Posts speak of entirely different thinks than mine do.

I posted that right after you edited your post, and then edited in my response. You edited the Where? post while I was posting.
