Weren't Roosevelt and Truman Democrats?

Sadly, those who most ardently advocate war have never seen it up close and personal.

And, the saddest people in the world are those who, even when faced with factual data, still stick to their preconceived ideas, no matter how many times they have been proven flawed.

I have seen two types of posters here. Some advocate a position, based upon supposition, conjecture, opinion, etc, dare people to prove them wrong. When faced with factual data, they parse it into ever smaller pieces until the entire argument becomes irrelevant. Then they claim victory when the saner respondents realize the game is going nowhere and quit the fray. Others, supplied with a reasonable scenario other than theirs, consider it and adapt as necessary. Of course, those are generally referred to as "liberals" or "the far left", labels taking the place of cogent arguments.

Interesting dichotomy.
