I’m not offended!

Personally, and perhaps unfairly, David, I already do count you as a liberal. Your place of residence and your seemingly blind devotion to the New York Times gave me my first clues. Are you old enough to have participated in the flag burnings and anti-military protests of the 1960s?

In this world of virtual reality, it would be interesting to place you in Afghanistan -- or Iran or Iraq or... - right now and watch as you identified who was the good guy/gal/elder or the bad guy/gal/elder. Which one will kill you at a minute's notice or which will beg you to give them asylum? Which is armed with concealed weapons? Which ten-year-old has already been trained to kill infidels? Why do modern liberals tend to ignore that there are two sides to every story?

Are there rogue military and rogue cops? Of course, just like there are rogue citizens who go ballistic, but there are much fewer of them than of "normal" folks, who try to live peacefully and with compassion. Why don't liberals take that into consideration?

And a final question for you: I can't get the events of Benghazi out of my head with the passage of time. What is/was your opinion of that event? Try to answer before Googling for a past edition of the New York Times, please.
