I am not sure yet if I need to examine my statement made early on in this thread or not, but I am using this post as a way to express what my intent was with my post. My intent was to express that, based on the quote from the interview, that it was a sad thing that the President could be insensitive to the needs of his citizens, including myself. I would not qualify that as an attack. If the reference is to my addition of "that is scary" or something like that, again, was not an attack, it is my true feeling. It is scary to me that President Bush could be our leader, although not chosen by me, when he so publicly seems to disregard the needs of many of his citizens. I do not make fun of him, disrespect him, and my comments were not meant as disrespect for him, but rather, respect for those of us that feel he has no feeling of admiration for us. As I said in a post earlier than that, even when President Clinton was embroiled in personal scandal, I always felt a genuineness and sensitivity that he possessed for his citizens. I think that is an important quality in a person representing our nation. I do apologize if I violated forum guidelines or seemed attacking in my manner. And, aweidiot, it is helping me to be more fully aware of what I post and to be sensitive to others and their point of view. Lesson learned I hope. Thank you also Jamie for your review of posting guidelines. Peace, Vanessa
