If you said you were for a woman's right to choose it would be civil.
If you said you want to save the unborn it would also be civil.
They are opposing viewpoints, but they are both "pro" something.
I think we have all be so hyper-exposed to negative attack adds we have to be extra vigilant to *not* use the same type of language.
I am not a Bush supporter. I didn't vote for him and I disagree with many of his policies. I think that the Patriot act runs the risk of being used to take away our civil rights. I would like the non-warranted wire tapping to be examined by someone well versed in constitutional law. I think the war in Iraq dilluted our forces from what endangers us more than Iraq ever did.
And I think all those *issues* are open for discussion if we stick to the issues.
I also think it's really good practice for us to learn how to tell the difference. Then maybe the media attack ads will quit working and they will quit using them.
