					<description>True.
And when they can't form a valid argument they resort to name calling and threats.
You can set your watch to it.  :0)</description>

					<description>I believe in abortion (human and chicken) AND capital punishment.  Because nothing is sacred.  :)

But yes, I'm becoming weary of the extremists all over the place.  But this rise of the centrists is worrisome as well since none of the centrists agree with each other, either.</description>

Well... well... you're from that "he needed a good killin'..." state! Of course you're for both.  :0)

I don't think *any* two people (including centrists) will agree 100% on any particular topic.  We all have our ideas on what degree we find something to be acceptable (I say why stop at muderers? serial rapists,  drug lords, and people who put those stinky perfume tear-offs in magazines should get the chair too.  Some may disagree. But that's cool.).

I link to think of me as an "independant" rather than a "centrist" though.  Even centrist sounds a bit too restrictive for my comfort zone.</description>

					<description>Being in the center has advantages, but there usually is a right and a wrong.  In your Israel/Palestine example, the Palestinians do have a homeland -- it is called Jordan.  It was established at the same time as Israel.  They weren't happy with it and wanted Israel too.  Too bad.</description>

					<description>The ball sits in the middle of a bowl of water, bobbing up and down. When the earth quakes and the bowl shakes, he watches as the water slops over both sides, hurling itself against the floor, as he continues to bob up and down.
