Hey, Doug, it's the same old story all over... You know I'm a bit more of a leftist (in fact, I think mr. Moore is quite moderate for my tastes -- not joking here) and you know I posted political images in the past, specially when the Iraqi war was beginning. One of them started a controversy about the right for a blank image to be in the Hot20 and we (you and me and I think Striving, if I remember well) discussed about that, but in a fair and respectful way... like it should be. Fact is, when you post a political image, you simply "call" for political comments. In my case, that was just what I wanted. So, you "call" also for comments that disagree with your ideas. Thus, your comment is not rude at all. If the guy in question is left-winged, I'm very disappointed by his/her reaction (that's something I can expect from a neocon, LOL). As I said, it's the same old story all over (read my "ranting" of a coupl'a days ago): nearly nobody seem to have the guts to stand critics and disagreement. And, when it comes to politics (yeah, because when there's art -- and this site is full of it -- you simply can't always avoid politics), this is even more absurd. My 2 euro-cents (firmly in my left-hand pocket, LOL) S.
